The main problem with Kallntin is that it is impossible to choose between all those amazing, inspiring, absolutely unique, handmade jewellery. Hrysoula and Giorgos are true artists and always happy to help with any particular requests. I am a ring lover and I adore my beautiful, very special Kallntin rings! ...have received so many compliments on them Thank you so much! Definitely recommended!

Archaeological Museum of Dion

Reviewed By DirkW107 - Alexandra Headland, Australia

Your entree ticket covers the museum, the archaeotheke and the archaeological park, so there's value for money for you ! Dion was the sacred city of the Macedonians, at the foot of Mountain Olympos, so the museum houses a lot of significant collections, covering both the Hellenistic and Roman periods. The excavations are fairly recent, only starting in the 1930-ies and the museum was build to house the best pieces unearthed from the necropolis and the sanctuaries and baths of the ancient city. There are some wonderful statues, especially the Dionysos, Isis and Aphrodite and the Asklepios Daughters ; also some really elegant bronze statues and votive & grave monuments (standing stone stelae). Of particular interest, of course, is the water organ or hydraulic organ - an amazing instrument, especially if you keep in mind it was used in the 1st-century BC. The Archaiothiki is a building adjacent to the museum ; it was build 10 years ago, specifically to exhibit the Dionysus mosaic ("the epiphany of the triumphant Dionysus"). It has a gallery upstairs all around the mosaic, so it can be viewed from all sides. Absolutely not to be missed !

Geological History Museum Olympus

The museum is again open after the COVID-19 pandemic. Here you can see numerous different minerals, fossils, rocks and crystals. Being an interactive museum, you will also have the chance to touch and hold many of them in your hands when you visit us. You will be sure to learn a lot about the geology of Olympus and Greece, properties of the minerals and other interesting facts that will travel you through the centuries. By visiting at night you will also have a chance to look through our telescope and observe a couple of planets and the moon, if the weather allows it. We are primarily giving tours in Greek, Serbian and English. We will be awaiting for your arrival!

Litochoro Maritime Museum

Reviewed By HT1972 - Thessaloniki Region, Greece

Whilst holidaying in Lotochoro, we visited the Maritime Museum and found it to be a very interesting and worthwhile experience. The actual president of the museum greeted us upon arrival and personally acted as our tour guide during our visit which was fantastic. Being an ex-merchant sailor, he was very knowledgeable on both the equipment and the history of the exhibits. He managed to keep our 9 year old and 5 year old interested right through the whole visit which was fantastic. Highly recommended museum to visit if you are in the area.
