Driving Guide & Places To Go in Thessaloniki

Get a feel for the city by walking the Byzantine Walls which are on the whole complete. Along the shore wall section you’ll come to the White Tower, emblem of the city and the only one surviving from the 16th century.

If Byzantine history is your forte, make sure you tour the most important of the city’s ancient churches, some of them dating back to the 5th century. Agios Demetrios and Agia Sophia are recognised to be two of the best.

The city was once part of the Ottoman Empire and there’s plenty of evidence of the influence of the Ottomans including the Turkish baths and several mosques. In fact it’s believed the modern name of the city comes from the Turkish Salonica.

The Archaeological Museum has the biggest collection of Macedonian artefacts in the world and it’s a great place to find out about Alexander the Great and his father; Phillip of Macedon.

The waterfront is the centre of evening entertainment and its three mile length is used as a meeting point for the city’s youth before heading inland to the bars and clubs.
