Sochos

Sochos is best known within Greece’s Macedonia and Thrace region for its enduring Carnival customs, especially the bell-wearing participants who appear during the pre-Lenten celebrations. The settlement lies on the slopes of Mount Vertiskos, northeast of Thessaloniki, where cultivated lowlands give way to wooded uplands. Local festive traditions keep elements of rural Macedonian culture visible through costume, music and communal ritual. Sochos belongs to the Municipality of Lagkadas, an inland area that extends toward Lake Volvi.
