📍 Greece
Located in the heart of the city’s waterfront, the White Tower is a 15th-century Ottoman fortress that has become Thessaloniki’s signature landmark. Standing prominently near the sea, it offers panoramic views of the city from its rooftop. Inside, a museum showcases the city’s fascinating history, exploring its multicultural influences through interactive exhibits. A climb up the spiral staircase is rewarded with breathtaking views, especially at sunset. Surrounding the tower, the promenade is lined with cafés, street performers, and great spots to rest after sightseeing. Tickets cost a few euros, and combined options with other city museums can provide good value.
