Adorned with reverence and flowers from Paros’ vibrant spring soil, the epitaphs of the churches leave a lasting impression on both residents and the thousands of visitors who come to the island each year to celebrate Holy Week. Each epitaph, uniquely decorated with different colors and styles, is an integral part of the culmination of the Divine Drama in Paros. See the images from parianostypos.gr: Paroikia – Zoodochos Pigis, Taxiarches Naoussa – Panagia Pantanassa, Koimisis Theotokou Marpissa, Marmara Prodromos, Leukessi Angeria, Aspro Chorio, Dryos, Kostos. The flowers were placed one by one, creating a stunning effect for the most somber day in Christianity.
