Great pics. I've heard lots of good things about this city. My grandparents immigrated to Australia from Polypótamos in the 1950s. Is that nearby?

I mostly liked the old upper town, which I hope to see in this thread soon...

If you referred to the village of Polypotamo(s), it is located at about 160 km west of Thessaloniki, 10 km south-west of Florina. There is another Polypotamos, in Euboea (municipaliy of Styra).

The first one is right. I have relatives in Florina as well. I alway thought it was closer. Although I guess Thessaloniki is the closest "big city".

Hoping to visit sometime within the next 2 years as I've never been to Greece before.

Pretty much all of the post WWII immigrants from the area went to either Perth, Melbourne or Toronto. I have heaps of relatives in Toronto too - another place I have to visit one day
