A monumental Macedonian masterpiece
Many of the most memorable getaways take place near the ocean and a holiday to Thessaloniki City is no exception.
This is a city with heaps of history, stretching back into the Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman Empires. The modern European layout is a dramatic contrast to how the metropolis looked back in its beginnings, which was in 350 BC. Aside from being known as the home of many important churches, monuments, and statues, Thessaloniki is also a hub for people who love watching live entertainment. Some of the best concerts and shows can be watched at the National Theatre of Nor and at Vassiliko Theatre. Shopping at Bezesteni Market and Modiano Market will give you a true taste of Greece, as will a trip to the ancient ruins that lure in thousands of holidaymakers to Thessaloniki every single month.This city is all you need for a memorable Grecian break.
