LARISSA

Built on the banks of the Pineios River, in the heart of the Thessalian plain, Larissa is a modern city with a vibrant pulse that, although not a classic travel destination, offers great reasons for a short getaway all year round. It boasts impressive monuments of archaeological interest, beautiful parks, pedestrian streets, squares and hangouts buzzing with life. In the wider area, Mount Olympus and Mount Kissavos with their traditional settlements, as well as the prefectures coastal areas in summer, attract the interest of visitors.
