About

In spring, Macedonia and Thrace come alive with colors and flavors that define the season. The ancient city of Philippi showcases its archaeological ruins, blooming wildflowers framing the remnants of Greco-Roman architecture. Nearby, the lush hills of Mount Athos beckon with their monasteries, where the quiet of the spring air is punctuated by the faint sounds of prayer and the rustling leaves. The region’s vineyards, particularly in Naoussa, begin to flourish, inviting visitors to explore the rich history of winemaking while sampling fresh local varieties.
