The Cypriots are out in the fields
Cypriots celebrate Green Monday by going on a mass excursion to the countryside, observing a day of fasting and celebration 48 days before Resurrection Sunday. The day involves playing games, eating special foods like pretzels and mollusks, and participating in various customs, including kite flying. Events organized by municipalities and communities include food offerings such as bean soup and laganas, as well as dances and music.
