Heptapyrgion of Thessalonica

My advice is to bring some water and snacks, as there aren’t many shops around. I ended up thirsty and regretting not packing a little picnic.
I suggest visiting around 9 AM... The light is perfect for photos, and you’ll beat the crowds... Trust me, it gets busy later

while the view is stunning, don’t miss the grounds! i almost skipped walking around the walls because i was too excited about the tower. take your time!

I recommend wearing comfy shoes. The paths can be a bit uneven, and you’ll want to explore every corner without worrying about your feet.
Basilica of St. Demetrius

I recommend bringing a reusable water bottle. There are fountains nearby, and you can refill. Plus, it will save you from buying overpriced drinks.

Don’t miss the crypt below the church; it's fascinating! My advice is to keep an eye out for the small entrance—it’s easy to walk right past it.

I think it's worth exploring the surrounding area after your visit; there are cute cafes and shops nearby that give a nice local vibe.
