Olympic Coast
A picturesque Greek region much
loved by tourists, is located south
of Thessaloniki. It is also known as
Olympic Riviera. Its good location and
good roads make Pieria a place easy
to reach.
Mount Olympus, the majestic abode
of the ancient Greek gods, is also
located here. Nowadays, it’s a na-
tional reserve famous for its abun-
dant Mediterranean flora and fauna
and for their variety. Despite popular
belief, Olympus is not a single moun-
tain; it’s a mountain range running
across several regions of Macedonia
and Thessaly.
