Big fire at Great Prespa Lake

Annual custom with large bonfires in lake of Great Prespa. A lake between three countries among surreal scenery. A way to celebrate the year to come.

Fires of Giourouki

While waiting for the fire of Achlada to start at midnight, a custom that takes place in many villages around Florina on December 23, the guys we met there told us to go together at the next village, Giourouki, to see the fire there as well. They would start that earlier than Achlada, since that was a smaller village and most of the local people there would visit the big fire of Achlada later.
