A pilgrim attends a church service at a Greek Orthodox temple in Hasia, northwestern Athens, Greece, Sunday, August 14, 2022. The Dormition of the Virgin Mary (or Mother of God as the Greeks usually refer to her) is celebrated on Aug. 15. The religious event is coupled with midsummer festivities, known as Panigiria, that often last more than a day with music, culinary feasts and, in many cases, flea markets.
