Overview
Starting at the Tower of the Fall, we explore the original layout of Thessaloniki and uncover why it was once called the Jerusalem of Europe. Discover the messages etched into the old city walls and learn about the Byzantine era that shaped the city.
Next, we see some of Thessaloniki’s oldest monasteries and learn about their historical importance. A highlight awaits as we dive into the former Turkish neighborhood, where Balkan-style houses, cobblestone streets, colorful facades, and some of the city’s best views captivate every visitor.
Thessaloniki’s immigrant history runs deep. As one of the oldest ports in the Mediterranean, the city has long welcomed newcomers who have helped shape its unique identity. These and many more hidden treasures are waiting to be discovered by travelers who want to go off the beaten path and discover the city that I absolutely love!
