Lady of the North
Thessaloniki, or Salonica, is the second biggest city in Greece. If you decide to go by bus, which we did, traveling through the Greek mainland and villages, was a nice experience. Although, for those that prefer the easy way, there are many flights every day.
As we arrived in Thessaloniki, we moved to the main, well known street of Aristotelous to get to our hotel. There is a strange romance between Salonica and its people. Her citizens seem to love their homeland and they are usually very friendly with tourists.
The city is full of old churches, almost in every corner, every little street. Tsimiski street is the main shopping street, full of shops and young people walking around enjoying the usually sunny weather.
Whenever you go to Salonica, do not miss the coastland. Full of cafeterias and sweet shops and a great view to the sea. And of course the brand mark of the city and maybe of whole Macedonia, as the citizens say, the White Tower of Salonica, at the coast. For those who like good food and sweets, you are going to love Salonica. Famous in whole Greece about her sweets, sweetly smelly buns, pasties and souvlaki.
