What to see in Greece

Thessaloniki

Thessaloniki is Greece's second largest and most populous city, and here the thick Byzantine walls that protect it give way to an attractive mix of architectural landscapes and winding cobbled streets.

The palm-lined avenues are home to elegant shops and restaurants, and the historic cobbled streets feature traditional tavernas and ouzerias to satisfy every palate.

Beautiful churches appear on every corner, markets with colourful local produce and pleasant nooks and crannies in Aristotle Square where you can sip an ice cream and watch the world go by.
