Mostra of Thymiana is one of the most important traditional customs of Chios and the Northeastern Aegean.
Rooted in the Middle Ages, the tradition reenacts the victorious battle of the people of Thymiana against pirates and the transformation of historical memory into celebration.

Every year, on Shrove Friday and Shrove Sunday, the village comes alive with the reenactment of the battle, performed through the dances Talimi and Detos, along with carnival festivities, linking the past with the present.

Mostra of Thymiana has been officially included in the National Inventory of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Greece, as a living expression of history, tradition, and collective memory.
A custom that continues to unite generations.
