Greece is great, rich and luxurious place. I think, you have heard these words not for the first time. Yeah, Greece – is an unique, generous and hospitable country. Nevertheless, today I would like to speak about Thessaloniki and share my impressions with you. I hope, it gonna be interesting!
Thessaloniki has also another names. And some of them are: the northern capital of Greece, cultural centre of Europe and whole Macedonia and so on and so forth. Thessaloniki has prepared a lot of places to look at.
Well, what exactly you have to visit in Thessaloniki, where and how to spend your time, what places to come to and how to entertain yourself, if you set out in Thessaloniki?
Let's start with hotels, as I'm sure, you don't want to find yourself no shelter for the night in foreign lands. So, there is unbelievably large number of hotels to everyones tastes. Even the most exacting tourist will choose the place, I mean the hotel, for the good of his / her soul. You will find here hotels starting from 2* class and finishing with villas of de luxe and elite class, where will be their own night clubs, shops and even currency exchange, etc. Nevertheless, everything, as you understand, depends on what sum of money you gonna spend for your resort. Greece – is quite expensive country. I'm sure you will have a desire to taste everything and to visit many places, and of course, you won't refuse to bring with you little souvenir, as a remembrance of the past Greece holiday!
Recommend you urgently to hire guide, who will speak in your language. As they say, Greeks speak well in English, French and German languages, but take care of yourself beforehand in order to avoid every possible upsetting situations. For example, misunderstanding when you moving into the hotel....
Sights. There is one of thousand major places of interest – is the city itself with its' medieval narrow streets and buildings. And one of them is White Tower. It was built in far Ottoman times and served as tower-defence and also it was a part of prison. After that time, when Greece became free from agonizing Ottoman invasion, tower was whitened. However, since that times present Tower became grey.
There is another place you have to visit too – is Rotonda. This construction also belongs to historical heritage of present country. Well, Rotonda was built like mausoleum for emperor Galeriy. Nevertheless, after some time this building served as Christian temple and that mosaic masterpieces, which decorate the walls of present building are one of the most antique (about IV century).
For those, who prefer modern resort and entertainments, picturesque northern capital of Greece will offer to come to aquapark «Water Land».This park is one of the biggest in whole Europe. Yes, it is really BIG! Here you will find out various watter park amusements, bars with soft drinks, pools and so on and so forth. Also, take advantage of the opportunity and sign up to take a course of hydro-massage.
As a matter of fact, don't delay and even don't think over «What will I do in Greece?». Just come to it. It will be fun!
