Travel information


Overview of Larissa


Larissa is the capital of the Thessaly Prefecture in central Greece. It is a commercial, industrial, military and transportation center. It is also the seat of the University of Thessaly’s Medical School and hosts one of the largest technical colleges in Greece.


According to archaeological evidence the city and its area has been inhabited since the tenth millennium BC. Legend says that Achilles was born here and Hippocrates, the Father of Medicine, died here. The area is home to ancient Roman and Greek theatres, a selection of fine museums and various important landmarks are located very close to the city. At its outskirts, on the road to Tyrnavos, one can visit the monument of Hippocrates where his tomb was found, the river Pineios which crosses the stunning valley of Tembi or within easy driving distance the colossal rock of Meteora with the world known monasteries speaking directly to the visitors' hearts. Mount Olympus, the home of the ancient Greek gods, the city of Trikala and the traditional village of Pellion are also in the vicinity.

All in all, Larissa is a “sweet” city amongst green dunes and imposing mountains.
