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.

Panagia

Reviewed By apars0n - Manchester, United Kingdom

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!

Baptistry of St. Lydia

Reviewed By visitkavala - Kavala, Greece

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.

One of the most famous beach bars in Ammolofoi. In a short distance from the town of Kavala, it consists the ideal destination from a summer getaway. On one of the most idyllic beaches, we create a unique place where you can enjoy the sun and sea, accompanied by soft music, unique cocktails and delicious dishes selections.
