Short visit in Tripolis, Greece
Reviews > Europe > Greece > Tripolis > Short visit in Tripolis
by If you don't have a car, you should really check public traffic schedules, otherwise you're stuck in the middle of nowhere, like I was! Tripolis is not really special, there are a few shops fort ourists and soem restaurants, but nothing you can't find in any other Greek city.
It costed a lot of time for me to go to Sparta and the city was really ugly, there was nothing worthy to look at. Loads of other cities in Greece have beautiful sights, don't waste time with Sparta, in my opinion.

Thessaloniki Sights
The White Tower has become over the years en emblem of Thessaloniki. The Ottomans built the waterfront tower to serve as a prison, and it subsequently became the scene of many grisly executions. The initial name of the tower was the “Tower of Blood”, but when Greece gained control over the city, it was whitewashed and renamed so as to erase some of its gruesome history. The Arch and the Tomb of Galerius are twin monuments from the Roman period, built as annexes to the Royal Palace whose ruins are close by. The Arch of Galerius used to be a triple arch celebrating the victory of the emperor over the Persians, but nowadays only... Read more »

Beach brake at Kaiafa - May 14, 2008, by Wazling
Nice pause during our trip. The place was made up of only of 3 houses, a small railwaystation with a little restaurant, I guess you could call it this way, and a little aunties shop. It's a longer time ago, when I was there, but the... Read more »
