I Flew To Athens For The Greek Orthodox Easter 🇬🇷

- ◼︎I returned to Athens, my favorite city in Greece, to experience the magical Midnight Ceremony of Greek Orthodox Easter, where everyone lights a candle symbolizing Jesus' eternal flame, culminating in a spectacular fireworks display. Before joining the festivities, I did what I always do when I return to Athens: I sought out some delicious, juicy gyros.

I'm a Black British Royal Navy veteran, married to a Greek woman I met when I was based in Cyprus. I visited Athens a few times with her & it was always a great city, although its unfortunate how the Greek economy has made life difficult for young Greeks. Glad you enjoyed the place ❤🇬🇷🇬🇧
What race do you consider Greeks ? And why did you have to state that you’re Black with British? Are you saying ethnic Greeks and British people are only white?

God has no color, no race. Only love for all of His creations. God bless brother!

Christ is Risen Brother for all of us on this Earth
Truely his risen 🙏🏾🇪🇹
During easter almost everyone in the city goes for vacation in the countryside to spend it with their families, very little amount of people are left and Athens is pretty empty. Anyways glad you enjoyed it🧡 you're always welcome here
You are our favourite tourist!!! And to be honest you are no longer a tourist in Hellas (Greece) but an honorary Hellene (Greek) yourself!
Thank you for loving my country bro you are always welcome!!

I just came back from Athens! The plan was to stay there for 4 days but I ended up staying for 14 days! Such a charming city 🇬🇷
Next year go to Chios island, if you are brave enough, to see the "rocket wars".
Hell yeah, i want to visit chios island some day ,you have nice easter events greetings from other city of Greece
From Patras !!!
For all who wpuld like to know, the area Emeka visited is Kipseli, down town Athens, the place he went to eat is in Fokionos Negri, a street full of restaurants and cafes and the Church is St. George in St. George's square, one of the most urban places in Athens.
Christ is Risen. Welcome back, my friend.
Truly He is Risen!
Happy Orthodox Easter to Greece.
❤❤❤❤
Ευχαριστώ πολύ ❤️
Gyros will unite the whole planet !

explain to me what do you mean he is risen
is orthodox easter different from that in west ?
Greece and Cyprus are very beautiful countries. You are always welcome in Greece.
You are filming in the locale of "Fokionos Negri" mall and "Kipselis Square"😂,
you asked Albanians and not local Greeks for directions to the nearest gyros fast food restaurant in Kipseli Square (they are the ones sitting in front of the closed off area where construction of a new station for the undeground railway system is underway),
and you did attend the Mass for the Resurrection of Crist at the square in front of the St George church!
I grew up in that neighborhood. 🤩 Ask me for directions next time. 🤩
I thought they were Albanians too
Christ is Risen!!! Enjoy Greece
Christ has Risen!
Athens loves you Emeka. Greece is a country that will always be like home for you.
Wait until you go to easter in a village...this is a city where traditions are still kept but they are mellowed down...greek easter in a village is something you will never forget
Welcome back my brother! Enjoy your time here. Καλό Πάσχα!❤
you eat the pita like a real Greek bro!!! keep up with the nice videos!!!
Holy Saturday night/vigil is the most holy nights of the whole year, Emeka. I hope you felt that while you were there among all the people who received the Light (represented in the candle) - Christ's Light. The midnight service is 3 hours long.
«Ἀναστήτω ὁ Θεός, καὶ διασκορπισθήτωσαν οἱ ἐχθροὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ φυγέτωσαν ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτοῦ οἱ μισοῦντες αὐτόν»
"May God arise, and his enemies were scattered, and those who hated him fled from his face" this happened in this square, brother.
Christos Anesti!
Hey friend, judging from your surname you are originally (your parents) from Nigeria, like my husband (he’s from NY but his parents are from Ambia State, Nigeria,actually we were there in February & then we went to Greece). I’m glad you feel this way for my country!!!
Long live to all my orthodox brothers in christ ! Christos is risen ! Χριστός ανέστη!
Emeka we wait you in OPAP ARENA for the title against lamia!
🇬🇷☦️🦅🦅🇨🇾
The Greeks love you!! No other country will love you like the Greeks!!
Χριστος Ανέστη...Christ has risen..you are welcomed to Greece all the time 🇬🇷🇬🇷
Καλώς επέστρεψες και πάντα ευπρόσδεκτος!
If you truly want to see Easter check the rocket war of Chios, the explosions of Kalymnos and Corfu as a whole. These are some of the must experiences not only in Ellas bit the entire world
I’m happy to see you went to Greece ❤ hope you enjoyed Greek Orthodox Easter. Enjoy 🎉
Well done Emeka l am glad you enjoy yourself in Greece
Welcome back to the Greece 🇬🇷 bro !!
Good bless you !
I'm so glad you experienced this!
14:30 Funnily enough the service is just getting started 😂It ends around 2 to 3am because it's a big celebration. Great video! Happy to see you enjoy the trip!
Enjoy your trip mate ✌️
If you like galaktobouriko, be sure to try bougatsa 🤤
Thanks for sharing your experience- Chris is Risen!
Always welcome🇬🇷
Christ is Risen ! Next year you have to visit Ethiopian Orthodox celebration in Addis Ababa.
after resurection we have family feasts eating a traditional dish that is called "mageiritsa". You should try it its very tasty.
I love the way you eat the gyros, you do it in a Greek way, the right way! 🤣🤣 Welcome back brother! Have fun!
Christos Anesti! Welcome to Athens, enjoy your stay.
Will you stay till Thursday to watch Olympiakos - Aston Villa second leg for qualifying to the final of Euro Confederation Cup? It will be lit and best atmosphere ever witnessed. Hard to get tickets though
Christ has Risen 🇬🇷✝️
Come to Cyprus and let me show you around to some great food and views 😊
Χριστος Ανεστη Emeka!
❤yep!! you are in Kypseli Fikionos Negri str. I hope you are going to enjoy Easter dude !!!
Hi, Greeks fast in Holy Week and do not eat Gyro because it contains meat. You can officially eat meat after Saturday midnight resurrection church service. I am surprised you found one on Holy Saturday!! Well done!
Hey dude, Greeks don't eat meat before Easter. So a lot of places will be closed
They are open, so ether fasters dont go there or the restaurants etc include a fasting menu.
Right.all shut
Not all Greeks, only Cristian Orthodox Greeks.
Monastiraki is open,many tourists even went to Holy Saturday Church.Was told they enjoyed.
You are always welcome thank you for the video
Welcome back dude! Kalo pascha!
Wow,Bless You.🎉🎉
Buddy you did like Greeeks! The majority we go 10 minutes before Christs rising and we go after the fireworks! Greetings from Canada!
CHRIST the lord...THE ONLY REAL ALIVE GOD❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 AMEN ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ THE CHRIST IS RISEN
Χριστός Ανέστη. ☦️☦️☦️🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷🙏🙏
Thanks for sharing your journey!
Man youre lucky if you had arived Friday before Easter you would have hard time to find souvkaki,its one of the only days that they dont open cause of the the orthodox fast.
I'll be there in September. Christos Anesti ☦️
Great Video Brother! Hope you are enjoying your time in Greece again so far! 👍🏻

Greece has changed much, the attitude of Greek people towards foreigners have also changed since Xrisi Avgi disappeared.Growing up in Greece as a black person around 2000s things started changing, I left there in 2008 and I went back in 2022 and when in Thessaloniki most people welcomed us I have since returned there 3 times from 2022 to now and enjoyed it Kirkira was my best place to visit
Would you mind explaining this a bit more? I see from a google search that Xrisi Avgi is the Golden Dawn party, but I don't remember hearing anything from then in a few years. What happened exactly?
@@metalbox1987they threw them all in jail for speaking up for us greek people, but hey at least Tyrone feels safe 😂, kasidiaris has started a new party from jail called spartiates

Happy Easter my friend.
I will suggest to get a ticket for the Olympiacos vs Aston Villa. It's going to be a blast.
Happy Easter buddy stay calm and enjoy Gyro
Welcome back!
I think the cups were to place around your candle to stop wax dripping on you. Greetings and Christos Anesti from Sydney Australia

Look up Kosmikon pastry shop. There’s several around Athens. They got the best galaktobouriko in Greece.
Hello, sir! Happy Easter! A note if I may 🙂 The plastic cup wasn't to drink something, but, for the melted candle to not dropped on your clothes 👍
