Thessalonika, Greece - new city break destination
Welcome to my blog, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
Greece has a new tourism minister, Aris Spiliotopoulos, who’d like to develop some less well known destinations in Greece. I think he must have been reading Europe a la Carte and decided to follow my lead. Top of his to do list is to market Thessaloniki in northern Greece as a hip city break destination. At present the majority of passengers flying into Thessaloniki airport are heading for the three pronged Halkidiki peninsula. Spiliotopoulos describes Thessaloniki as a “combination of historic monuments and a vibrant, pulsating, youthful city”. I visited Thessaloniki almost 30 years ago so can’t really comment on what the city is like now but I’ve heard that there is ongoing development work to make the seafront more attractive.
