The city
Thessaloniki counts 23 centuries of history. It is the second largest city in Greece and a prominent center in its region. Erected by the sea, Thessaloniki has evolved into a modern-day metropolis, with its stormy history and cosmopolitan character dressing the city in a veil of distinct charm.
​
The numerous historical sites & museums, the vast sea views, and a remarkable local cuisine, reputed as one of the best in the country, make the city easy to fall in love with.
Guardian described Thessaloniki as “Greece’s second city but its gastronomic capital” in 2015. In June 2017, its characteristic cuisine was praised by the French magazine MasterChef.
