Greece's second city offers the same history, food, and beautiful weather as Athens with far fewer crowds. Old buildings like the White Tower blend with newer developments, including the new waterfront, completed in 2013 and home to a beautiful piece of public art, George Zongolopoulos's "Umbrellas". Discover ancient structures like the intricately carved Arch of Galerius as you tour the city, then settle down at a taverna for some of the best food you'll ever eat. Just one thing: that friend who hates olives? Best leave her at home for this one!
