About : Green Monday in Cyprus is the beginning of Lent and marks both the beginning of a religious season and the start of spring. The most important event on this day is kite flying competitions. People make their own kite or pick one from the store. Then they gather in some public place and enjoy by flying the kite. Most of the kites are in the shape of a pentagon, brightly decorated, and may have some special logos. People also plan for outings and have fun with their friends and family.
