Tourist traffic for the Orthodox Easter holiday this coming weekend is concentrated in popular Greek destinations with lesser-known mainland locations still struggling to see figures rise, the Hellenic Federation of Hoteliers (POX) said this week.

Greek Orthodox Easter was on Sunday, April 8 and the Greek-American community attended Church services keeping with the faith and tradition. Celebrities were no exception, with producer-actress and wife of Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson, attending the Sunday liturgy in the company of another Hollywood celebrity and professional Nia Vardalos.
