What is there to do in Thessaloniki?

Thessaloniki is Greece at its brilliant best. The country’s second city has skyrocketed into a paradise for holidaymakers from across the globe, each tourist longing to discover the breathtaking architecture emblazoned across an undulating landscape. Of course, the mecca of glorious beaches and frivolous nightlife is best explored in the summer months – the colourful houses and lively tavernas glisten underneath the beautiful shimmer of the Mediterranean Sun. Whilst the sun shines, the museums and churches exude a carefree vibe, drenched in visitors thirsty for an insight into the fascinating history behind Greece’s northeast coast. As wonderfully vibrant the city is in the daytime, the fun truly begins when night falls upon the plethora of frenetic nightclubs, cool bars and welcoming restaurants. A number of young people bounce from one club to another; if your scene is dancing until the early hours of the morning, the scintillating nightlife provides the perfect formula of vitality and vigour. Though make sure your hangover doesn’t prompt a snooze until the early afternoon – Thessaloniki is a city that deserves to be appreciated at every moment of the day.
