Visit Chios Island during Easter time (! Orthodox Easter). In Vrondades village a 'rocket war' takes place. The village is founded on two hills, on top of each one there is a church. The habitats of each hill prepare small, harmless rockets while the whole year. So, that day, they launch them against the 'rival' church. This custom is declarated by many (BBC and CNN included) as one of the most spectacular Easter customs. Prefer a place far from the 'war field', from where it is easier to admire the whole thing.
