Why visit Trikala?
Trikala is one of mainland Greece's most forward-thinking municipalities, anchored by the meandering Lithaios River which splits the town into picturesque quarters connected by numerous footbridges. Visitors can explore the Ottoman-era Koursoum Mosque, designed by the master architect Mimar Sinan, before walking up to the Byzantine Fortress of Trikala and the nearby clock tower, with views over the town towards the Pindus foothills.
The surrounding Thessalian plain provides exceptional agricultural produce that drives the local taverna menus, where you should order traditional trahana soup, local feta cheese, and slow-roasted pork spetzofai. Across the river lies Varousi, the historic old town, characterized by preserved Macedonian-style mansions with overhanging upper floors. Just outside the centre, the Mill of Elves transforms into a massive seasonal park during winter, while a short drive west leads you to the dramatic rock pillars and cliff-top monasteries of Meteora.
