Larissa

The Pineios River defines the setting of Larissa — its course crosses the broad Thessalian plain that has supported this major inland city for centuries. As the capital of Thessaly, Larissa is an important commercial and administrative centre between mainland Greece’s mountains and Aegean coast. The First Ancient Theatre, built in the 3rd century BCE and now embedded in the city centre, recalls its prominence in ancient Thessaly. Riverfront paths and pedestrian streets give the modern centre a notably urban, everyday rhythm. Find related webcams in the surrounding area to build a fuller picture of Larissa and Thessaly.
