About Larissa

Larissa is the largest city of Thessaly and the fifth largest city in Greece — a city of 170,000 inhabitants on the Pineios River in the heart of the Thessalian plain, the most fertile agricultural region of Greece, whose history extends without interruption from the Neolithic period (the city is one of the oldest continuously occupied urban sites in Greece) through the ancient city of Larissa (whose Acropolis Hill preserves the ruins of the ancient theatre of the 3rd century BCE — one of the largest in antiquity — and medieval and Byzantine fortifications) to the thriving contemporary commercial and university city. Larissa was the capital of the ancient kingdom of Thessaly and an important city in all periods of Greek history.

Larissa's most celebrated ancient monument is the Ancient Theatre on the Acropolis Hill (3rd century BCE, one of the largest ancient theatres in Greece, now partially excavated and used for contemporary performances in summer) and the adjacent Byzantine fortress walls. The Larissa Archaeological Museum (with important finds from the Neolithic to the Byzantine period, including significant Thessalian prehistoric artefacts) and the Larissa Municipal Gallery give the city a cultural programme of considerable quality. The Thessalian plain surrounding Larissa — the most productive agricultural landscape in Greece, its vast fields of wheat, cotton and sunflowers stretching to the ring of mountains on all sides — gives the city a character quite unlike the coastal and island-focused tourism of most Greek destinations, with the Tempi Gorge (the dramatic limestone gorge through which the Pineios River exits the plain, 45km north, with the sacred spring of Aphrodite and the railway tunnels used by the Athens–Thessaloniki main line) the most spectacular natural feature within easy reach.

Important Transfer Information

Ancient Theatre of Larissa — One of the Largest in Greece: The Ancient Theatre of Larissa (3rd century BCE, on the Acropolis Hill, one of the largest ancient Greek theatres known, partially excavated and still used for performances) and the adjacent Byzantine and medieval fortress walls give the city an archaeological depth extending from the Neolithic to the Ottoman period on a single prominent hill at the heart of the modern city.

Thessalian Plain — Most Fertile Agricultural Landscape in Greece: The Thessalian plain surrounding Larissa (the largest and most productive agricultural plain in Greece, enclosed by the Olympus, Ossa, Pelion and Pindus mountain ranges) gives the city its character as the agricultural capital of Greece — the vast flat farmland, the Pineios River and the dramatic mountain frame visible from the city give the Thessalian landscape a grandeur and a clarity quite different from the Greek island or coastal experience.

E75/A1 Central Thessaly Transfer: The transfer from Volos Airport to Larissa takes approximately 54 minutes via the E75/A1 motorway northwest across the Thessalian plain — the main Athens–Thessaloniki national motorway through the heart of Greece.
