Why do Greek priests have long hair? Why are Greek churches full of icons but short of seats? Why is Easter a different date in Greece? Whether you are a first-time visitor to Greece or a long-term resident, you will find the answers to these and a host of other questions about Greek churches in this book. As a tourist to Greece, the author had a thousand questions. Now, living in the country and as a member of the Orthodox Church, he has the answers. With over 100 illustrations and a generous sprinkling of humour, this is an indispensable guide to anyone wanting to see Greece beyond the beaches and bars.
