Cyprus : Tsiknopempti In Limassol
The city's skyline is seen from a hill outside the city during sunset on ''Tsiknopempti'', Limassol, Cyprus, on Feb. 16, 2023. The word Tsiknopempti comes from two other words 'tsikna' (the smell of burnt and grilled meat) and 'Pempti' (Thursday in Greek) and is celebrated on the Thursday, which is 11 days before Clean Monday. Traditionally, everyone must cook meat so that the smoke fills the air and everybody knows it's a feast-day. (Photo by Kostas Pikoulas/NurPhoto)
