The season is shifting. So is the journey through Greece. 🍂
Up in the northern part of Greece, the villages offer a slower way to explore @VisitCMacedonia: mountain scenery, village walks, cosy coffee shops and food so good that you won't believe it.
If autumn in lesser-known Greek villages sounds like your kind of luxury, save this Reel and share it with someone who dreams of exploring Greece all year round.

The Ghika Gallery at Kriezotou 3 in Athens was gifted to the Benaki Museum by the artist Nikos Hadjikyriakos-Ghika, who lived and worked here from the 1950s till 1994. A wonderful place to enjoy his work, and that of others:
