Larissa
Larissa, the capital city of Thessalia, stands at the heart of
the Thessalian plain, is a major commercial and industrial
center, a large market center approached across a dull
landscape of wheat and corn fields.
For the most part modern
and unremarkable, it retains a few old streets which hint at
its recent past as a Turkish provincial capital. As another
large road and rail junction, the town has efficient
connections with most places you'd want to reach: Volos to the
east, Trikala and Kalambaka to the west, and Lamia to the
south.
The major river of Thessalia, the river Pinios flows
through this city giving it a charm that is unique. Museums
and Art Galleries are a common feature and worth visiting. |

Hydra Island
|
|
Welcome to Hellas
(Greece) and welcome to Hydra! it's probably impossible to fit all of Hydra's fascinating beauty in this small
pamphlet. We have attempted, however, to give a short description of the island that has enough to offer the visitor and guarantees a memorable
vacation.
The healthy dry climate, the friendly people, the sparkling warm waters and the picturesque harbor that at sundown transforms into a cosmopolitan city full of sports, scuba diving, trips to the islander historical monasteries, donkey rides in town, shopping In the stores along the harbor, good food in the taverner and restaurants, and all night partying at the bars and music clubs around
town.
The high quality and exquisite service characteristic of the hotels and other shops and restaurants fit perfectly the strict standards of the highest class visitors and the jet set from all over the world that come to Hydra every
year.
