DJURDJEVDAN IS YET TO COME
Tomorrow is Djurdjevdan*. The locals of Oparic are preparing the Saint Patron’s Day dedicated to the Holy and Great Martyr George and they are glorifying the holiday that follows winter, evokes spring and awakens all the senses. Despite the fertile land, there are fewer cultivated fields in Oparic, and more weeds and abandoned gates. However, people, plants and legends in this village in the Levac area are still weaving colorful Djurdjevdan's wreaths together. From the beginning of time to Instagram.
* Djurdjevdan (St. George's Day) has been in the National Register of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Serbia since 2015. This Christian and national holiday is celebrated throughout Serbia, but each region nurtures specific beliefs and customs that celebrate St. George's Day.
