Tokyo City Bar Thessaloniki

Electronic music

""Tokyo City Bar" in Thessaloniki is totally dedicated to fans of pure electronic music. For me, the best time to drop in is after 01:00..."

In Valaoritou area, which is full of mainstream choices for a night out, you can find a bar that is totally dedicated to the fans of electronic music. Tokyo City Bar is located in the same building with Fragile Bar but it's a totally different story. From the very first moment that you enter the bar you feel a mixture of excitement, an eagerness to dance, and surprise. The emotion of surprise is because it's difficult to realise that there is a bar that exclusively supports electronic music in that area.

Frequently, the owners organise electronic parties with guest and resident DJs, mostly techno or trance music! 

For me the best time to visit the bar is after 01:00.

The atmosphere reminds me a bit of Rotterdam, a city famous for its dance scene. The industrial design combined with the electronic music and the young people dancing fiercely will skyrocket your night out.

If you don't like that kind of music you are kindly advised not to visit Tokyo City Bar!

Paradosiako

Paradosiako – The best pie in Thessaloniki!

I have tried many pies in many spots, not exclusively in Thessaloniki, but those that I have really fallen in love with are the pies of “Paradosiako”! That Greek word means “Traditional”.

Byzantine Bath – A unique monument

The building dates back to ca. 1200 and it was in function until 1940! During the Ottoman period, it was known as Koule Hamam. It was constructed in a period during which the tradition of public baths was revived after the Late Antiquity.

Nea-Diagonios

Nea Diagonios – A paradise of meat

In the eastern part of Thessaloniki, you can find the “paradise of meat”, the restaurant “Nea Diagonios” (literally, “New Diagonal”). Although the area is not touristy, it is worth visiting (don’t worry, there is a menu in English too).

Katselis – The most delicious bougatsa

The best place to have a traditional breakfast, which hotels usually don’t offer, is “Katselis”! There are two branches; one near the train station and one in the city's eastern part.

Holy Apostles Church – Another taste of Byzantium

One of my favorite Byzantine monuments in Thessaloniki is the church of the Holy Apostles. What makes it unique is the combination of gorgeous frescoes and mosaics; even though the latter, only fragments are preserved!

It was constructed in 1903 and is dedicated to the Holy Mother of God (in Armenian: Sourp Asdvadzadzin). From an architectural point of view, Poselli chose the eclectic style, that is, to combine different traditions.
