The citizens of Athens, continuing their tradition of gathering in the Presidential Mansion’s garden for a Christmas celebration, once again filled its paved paths and green spaces with joyful, festive music.
Families with children, individual strollers, and music lovers of all ages enjoyed the performances of the Hellenic Navy, Army, and Air Force bands, featuring Christmas carols and children’s songs performed by excellent musicians and opera singers serving in the Armed Forces. It was a beautiful afternoon that united young and old in the spirit of shared Christmas joy. I wish the love and warmth of this season to fill every home and every heart. Merry Christmas!
