GREECE-THESSALONIKI-WATERFRONT-TOURISM-FEATURES

In this picture taken on August 23, 2018, shows a view of the White Tower, the city's landmark and people as they walk on the old waterfront in Thessaloniki. The waterfront of Thessaloniki, which is about 5km in length, one of the biggest in the Balkans, is divided into old and new. The old waterfront running along Nikis Avenue from the port to the White Tower. It has served as a parade ground for kings and a place of protest for indignant citizens past and present. The New Waterfront of Thessaloniki, an ambitious renovation designed on 2013, is a linear place with limited depth and great length, with the characteristics of a "front", a thin layer inserted in the limit between land and sea. The project consists of a long walk along the waterfront and 13 green spaces. (Photo by Sakis MITROLIDIS / AFP) (Photo by SAKIS MITROLIDIS/AFP via Getty Images)
