The region of Philippi is connected to many exceptional historical figures and events that shaped the Western world. Stunning monuments, which have survived until today, are evidence of the long history of the cultures that interacted and grew in this region. The Early Christian monuments of Philippi are among the best-preserved of their type and for this historical period in the whole world!

It was my first time walking with friends towards the castle maybe little tricky finding it as you need to past by the houses along the alley to the top of the hill. There are directions and you may have to take some stairs or steep hill to get there. Its a beautiful scene make sure its a sunny day to enjoy the view from the top. It was really enjoyable for me and friends and certainly for those whom loves nature, scenary and photography.

The most characteristic monument of Kavala is the large, arched aqueduct, known by the name “Kamares” (Arches), with a length of 270 m and a maximum height of 25 m. They were built in 1520-1530, a period during which many infrastructure works were carried out in Kavala, with the aim of reconstructing the city after the destruction of 1391. The Kamares are a huge structure, out of proportion to the size of the then insignificant settlement.

The best beach I've ever visited in Greece. It is huge and has the same soft sand as at the Black sea, Bulgaria.

Panagia, the old town of Kavala, is much prettier and less ramshackle than the old town area of Thessaloniki (in my opinion) and is a lovely area to explore and, probably, get lost in. Follow the street up from opposite St Paul's monument (with the luminous mosaic) and head upwards. If you decide to go up any of the stairs on the left, you may well find yourself having to come back down again, but that is part of the charm of the area. There are places to eat and gift shops, but everything is relaxed and understated, rather than pushy and tacky. Apart from the castle (with lovely views of the aquaduct and the city), there are portions of the old city walls, the Halil Bey Mosque, Mehmet Ali's residence and the Imaret to discover within Panagia's twisty streets. And despite the effort needed in the walk up, remember that what goes up comes down again!

The modern Baptistery of St Lydia (1974), with an octagonal design, can today be found very close by to the archaeological site. On the adjacent bank of the River Zygaktis there is an open-air baptistery within the flowing stream, similar to those that survive in the Early Christian basilicas of Philippi in the shape of a cross. On 20 May each year, the day of memory for St Lydia of Thyatira, an adult baptism is performed in the River Zygaktis after the Divine Liturgy. Being present at the mystery of baptism is a unique spiritual experience.
