The Castle of Kavala

Reviewed By farlin1999

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 street is closed for cars in the evening and the lighthouse area becomes the perfect place to have a stroll by the sea, to have dinner and to enjoy the breeze.

The Aquaduct

Reviewed By visitkavala - Kavala, Greece

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.
