Kandylakia
While traveling in Greece I was fascinated by these beautiful roadside shrines. I learned that they are known as Kandylakia. They were clearly visible on the edges of the narrow winding mountainous roads, and when I asked I was told they commemorate lives lost, often in automobile accidents. Some are built to celebrate miracles that have occurred.
Inside are icons of saints There was usually a floating wick candle that was always burning, even though it seemed to be in the middle of nowhere. Often there were flowers and personal items.
Usually made of wood, stone, metal or concrete, they are clear reminders to slow down and drive with caution.
