Guided Walking Tour in the Historical Center of Thessaloniki
Roads full of monuments. Monuments full of stories about emperors, gods and mortals, wars and disasters, victories and feasts. A city of many faces - sometimes with a friendly smile, sometimes with an introvert frown, and some other times with an awkward pose as she stands in front of her historical significance and glorious 23-century past.
In this unique, alternative walking tour, we discover every period of the city’s history - from Roman times to present day - through a kaleidoscope of monuments and landmarks that mark the ever-present timeline of a multicultural metropolis.
