*** ABOUT THE ALEXANDROUPOLI ***



Discover the beautiful northern city of Alexandroupoli... The town of Alexandroupoli, built on the ruins of the ancient city of Sali, is a contemporary city with more than 50,000 inhabitants. The modern history of the town begins in the 1850s, when fishermen from various coastal villages created a small fishing village that thanks to its strategic position at the crossroads between East and West, gradually became the most important commercial, economic and cultural centre of the whole area. Don't forget to visit the church of St. Eleftherios, the neo-classical building of the Education Academy, the two ruined mosques, the market and the lighthouse (Alexandroupoli's landmark).

Museums The Ecclesiastic Museum hosted in beautiful neo-classical building features an impressive collection of Byzantine icons and treasures. Visit the stone-built neo-classical of the Ethnological Museum of Thrace that hosts a unique folklore collection. The Evros river Delta This unique Mediterranean delta just 20 kilometres away from Alexandroupoli, has been designated as a wetland of international importance under the Ramsar Convention of 1974. The wide variety of small islands, lagoons, lakes, marshes and sandbanks make the delta a unique ecosystem. Its favourable location along bird migratory routes and its relatively mild climate provide refuge to a wide variety of species and plants: 46 species of fish, 21 species of lizards and snakes, 40 species of mammals and more than 350 plant varieties can be observed there. Dadia Forest Reserve Located just 65 kilometres from Alexandroupoli, the Dadia Forest Reserve is characterised by unique landscape and vegetation exhibits. Pronounced rocky formations, cliffs, dozens of streams, small rivers and extensive forests dominated by pine and oak, offer refuge to more than 45 species of mammal like wolves, jackals, roe deer, squirrels and bats. The 40 different species of snakes, frogs, turtles and lizards that can be observed along with more than 120 species of birds and 36 species of pray birds make the reserve an area of increased uniqueness and ecological importance and an excellent day trip from Alexandroupoli. Other itineraries For rewarding views of the unique forest vegetation we propose two itineraries: the Alexandroupoli - Kirki - Sikorachi and the Alexandroupoli - Loutro - Pessani - Dadia. Thirty nautical miles away from Alexandroupoli is located the island of Samothraki popular for its rare endemic fauna and unique natural beauty. Popular with visitors are the monuments dating from the Byzantine era like the castle of Dydimoticho (8th to 15th century), the fortress of Ioannis Katakouzinos in Pythio (early 14th century) and the temple of Kosmosotira in Feres built in 1152 a.d.
