The local cuisines of the countries or the different regions of a country always have something good and interesting to show no matter how famous they are. A typical example is Aegina. The local cuisine of the favorite island of Argosaronikos is based on its local product which is none other than the pistachio of Aegina. Below you will find three well-known recipes from Aegina slightly "teased", a salad, a main meal and a snack.
Aegina is known for its religious tourism and more. Those who deal with it probably know the Monastery of Panagia Chrysoleontissa which is the patron saint of the island. It celebrates on the 15th of August with the biggest festival of the island taking place there.
A coastal and island country like Greece with a rich naval past and present could not be without lighthouses. Each lighthouse in our country has its own name which is determined by its location and its geographical coordinates. Consequently, each lighthouse has its own story, based on its characteristics such as its height, its lighting source and the periodicity with which it flashes, which is measured in minutes or seconds. Of course, these are not the only features of lighthouses.
