Trikala - City of wonders
Live there
One of the few cities
There are very few cities in Greece, apart from Athens, where I think I would happily live permanently.
Trikala is undoubtedly one of them.
First of all, it is very friendly to its residents, who in turn are equally friendly and calm. How could they not be?
They live in a flat city, ideal for cycling, with very few places more than a 15-minute walk away. There is infrastructure for whatever anyone wants to see, eat, enjoy, and do.
“This City is what it is because our citizens are what they are.”
What to do (whatever you like!)
There are so many things to do here that I will simply mention the famous Mill of the Elves and the incredible Tsitsanis Museum.
It would be remiss of me not to mention the greatest advantage of the city of Trikala: it is perhaps the ideal base for someone who loves excursions, like me. Due to its location, it is almost in the center of mainland Greece, so choosing between short and long trips is a breeze. The mythical Meteora, for example, is just over 20 minutes away!
Plan your visit in Meteora (and stay in Trikala)
Meteora is a unique destination in the whole world, but if you plan to visit it, take my advice and stay in Trikala. You won't be disappointed.
Finally, I must mention that some very beautiful people live in Trikala, such as Stefania, Thanasis, Stefanos, and Bessy, which makes every trip at Trikala a very easy decision.
It was certainly no coincidence that Asclepius was born here.
