About Thessaloniki: What to do in Thessaloniki - Thessaloniki, Macedonia, Greece
During the reign of the Byzantine Empire, the city of Thessaloniki was widely known for its scale and beauty. This historical aura is still on hand around the Byzantine Eptapirigion Walls, which are also called the Seven-Gated Walls. The Upper City is situated in this area and lends itself nicely to an afternoon promenade along cobblestone streets, where tourists will find wooden houses, street-side fountains, and quiet cafés.
Thessaloniki has a long-standing reputation for fine dining. Several local restaurants offer Greek and Macedonian cuisine. The nightlife of a metropolitan centre is also on hand, with plenty of nightclubs and hotels offering entertainment.
