Description

We start our tour at the Upper Town (Ano Poli) at Trigoniou Tower, where we visit the Old Monastery of Vlatadon. Later on, walking through the picturesque alleys of Ano Poli, we reach the Church of Hosios David. Afterwards, we continue our Byzantine walk and visit the church of Saint Nicholas Orphanos. Then, we make our way to the Byzantine Bath of Thessaloniki. We realize our next stop at the glorious Rotunda, one of the most ancient and most impressive monuments of the city. Near Rotunda, the Church of Saint Panteleimon is located.

Our next stop takes place at Aristotelous square, in the city centre, where we visit the church of Panagia Chalkeon. Finally we visit the church of Saint Sofia, the «Big Church», as it used to be the metropolitan church of the city with the famous mural painting on its dome of the 9th century and the Early-Christian chapiters of the 5th century. Saint Sofia, as well as all the previous monuments we visit, are part of the World Heritage sites of UNESCO.
