One of the many entrances of the route of Elaiorema, Pylaia.
A beautiful urban park, the Elaiorema of Pylaia, has become a favorite destination for both young and old in Thessaloniki. Recently renovated, this park has been transformed into a green oasis in the heart of the city.
Located at the point where the Kato Toumba stream, Konstantinoupolitika, and Pylaia meet, the park offers a plethora of activities for everyone. It features running and walking trails, cycling areas, outdoor fitness equipment, soccer and basketball courts, as well as a variety of plants, herbs, and trees. It's an ideal place for sports and relaxation.
The park also hosts various events such as music festivals, picnics, outdoor yoga classes, and other social activities. A distinctive feature of the park is the presence of a significant heritage monument from the Early Christian period—a stone arched bridge that connects Pylaia with Chortiatis. This bridge was once part of the Egnatia Road and is located at the point where the Regional Trench meets Elaiorema.
In summary, the Elaiorema of Pylaia is a wonderful space that offers physical activity, relaxation, and numerous opportunities for recreation to the residents of Thessaloniki.
