Ataturk Museum

Reviewed By Jatita

Interesting in situ view of his early life. Easy to get to from the usual Salonica must-sees. More security than usual tourist stops.

Beautiful church with some old mosaics and gorgeously carved pews, definitely worth a visit. You can also visit the crypt underneath which is quite interesting and has good descriptions in English.

Museum of Byzantine Culture

Reviewed By RoddieA

This is a wonderfully laid out museum containing a large variety of Byzantine artefacts. Its permanent exhibition is presented over about 11 rooms in this specifically designed, easy to navigate, atmospheric yet modern building. There are some truly beautiful icons and mosaics on view. Each room is dedicated to a particular aspect of Byzantine culture. The first covers the early churches while others present topics such as castles, emperors, graves and the various collections that were bequeathed to the museum. The information is displayed in English & Greek. The museum is highly impressive and informative and gives superb insights into the Byzantine Empire and Era. There is also a small cafe/restaurant in the building. Well worthy of a visit.

White Tower of Thessaloniki

Reviewed By 379alany - Limassol City, Cyprus

The White Tower is an iconic seafront landmark in Thessaloniki with an incredible history. The information inside is very well presented on each of it's floors (in Greek only, but there are audiophones available at the entrance). It's a well worth climb to the top where a small shop is located - the view of the seafront from there is superb. Well worth the small entrance fee and it's one of the attractions included in the Thessaloniki combined cultural ticket.

Aristotelous Square

Reviewed By panayiotisb2018 - Athens, Greece

Like Alexander the Great once said “I am indebted to my father for living, but to my teacher (Aristotle) for living well. That goes for Thessaloniki as well literally! Don’t bother going to Thessaloniki if your not planing to spend time at Aristotelous Square! Stand right in the middle and breathe in all the energy of Northern Greece, or gaze above from a high top cafe of a hotel roof bar especially on a sunny day! This is the heart ❤️ of Thessaloniki, filled with beautiful cafes and restaurants, shops, hotels, the modiano market lathathika area and most of all amazing view! No wonder Aristotle was “Master of all trades”! The guy knew!

Ladadika District

Reviewed By 633nikiz

We were delighted to stumble across this area as it was buzzing with people eating outdoors at the tavernas in the narrow streets. Be prepared, you might have to queue for a little while as its popular. Many places were mezodopolias (like tapas bars), and you ordered small portions of several dishes. Lots of atmosphere, good food, reasonable prices and well worth a visit.
