Built amphitheatrically between the mountains of Vitsi and Grammos, Kastoria with its 75 Byzantine churches and monasteries, lazily spreads in a narrow strip of land and is self-reflected in the waters of Lake Orestiada that turn it into an idyllic destination.
Through its inexhaustible natural beauties, its rich history, its picturesque neighborhoods and its imposing mansions, Kastoria charms even the most demanding visitor. Discover the city by first offering yourself the unique experience that the small tour of the lake offers. Following the route from the south to the north beach of the city through paths bordered by beaches and large plane trees, indulge in the "zen" character of the lake, and experience the absolute calm and relaxation through the amazing alternation of colors and landscape and amphitheater background arrangement of houses above its waters.
You could furthermore wander to Dolcho, the old town with its mansion character and see up close the imposing mansions of Macedonian architecture standing proudly in the urban landscape to remind everyone of the great prosperity and wealth that the city experienced in times of its history. Most of them have been restored, with their fortress exterior and their impressive interior decoration, these buildings still exude the air of the nobility of their owners, past and present..
