Overview

Saint Demetrios’ chapel lies in the upper neighborhood of Lefkara, a few meters away from the district road “neodromos”. The chapel operates on the nameday of saint Demetrios (26th October) and also on the Friday following Easter Sunday.On that day the tradition used to be that all the young ladies would attend the mass dressed up in their best clothes. The young boys would stand outside the chapel and count the ladies as they entered the chapel. They used to write the final number on the wall e.g. ’60 beautiful ladies at Ayios Demetrios’.
