From dawn to dusk on the streets of Thessaloniki

@duskobgd · 2025-08-13 17:00 · Wednesday Walk

I woke up very early this morning.
So much so that I was already fully awake, in order to wait and photograph the sunrise over the surrounding hills of Thessaloniki on the terrace of the hotel where I am staying.

This Wednesday was long, a lot of details could be connected with #summervibes, but there was also a lot of walking.
At the beach where we spent part of the day, we walked along the boardwalk in search of a restaurant where we could have lunch.

Along the entire promenade there is a large number of taverns with a view of the sea and beautifully landscaped gardens.

And in one of those gardens, I saw a fountain with these inscribed stones.

Hiver I thought of, will probably be recognized 🙂

We came across a pier where excursion boats that take tourists along the Gulf of Thessaloniki dock, opposite which there is a beautiful garden and a house with a mural.

All the taverns we found offer only fish specialties and we wanted to eat gyros, so we decided to continue our walk through the streets of Thessaloniki after the beach and look for a place where we can eat gyros.

In Thessaloniki, shops and restaurants open twice a day, are closed on certain days or are closed due to collective holidays, so it can be difficult to find a shop or restaurant, unless you go to the strict old city center, where mostly everything is open...

Near the restaurant where I found gyros, and where I treated myself to gyros and a pint of cold beer on a building on the opposite side of the street, there is an interesting large mural.

We discovered this part of the city by chance, during one of our walks, it looks beautiful.

Small old houses, cobbled streets, but also wide boulevards which open to the harbor.

As I started this Wednesday with a sunrise, it's my turn to end it with a sunset, thus completing my #wednesdaywalk in Thessaloniki.
