EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking panorama captures the rooftops of Thessaloniki, Greece, as seen from the Heptapyrgion, or Yedi Kule, in 1916. The Heptapyrgion, also known as Eptapyrgio, is a historic fortress located on the north-eastern corner of the acropolis in Thessaloniki. This Byzantine and Ottoman-era castle, built between the 5th and 16th centuries, is a testament to the rich history of this vibrant city. The panoramic view showcases the diverse architectural styles that have shaped Thessaloniki over the centuries. In the foreground, the red-tiled rooftops of the modern city blend seamlessly with the ancient ruins of the agora and the Byzantine walls. The city's iconic landmarks, such as the Church of Saint Demetrios and the Rotunda of Galerius, can be seen in the distance. The Heptapyrgion, with its imposing towers and fortified walls, stands proudly atop the hill, a symbol of the city's resilience and strength. The fortress has played a significant role in the defense of Thessaloniki throughout history, from the Byzantine Empire to the Ottoman Empire and beyond. This panoramic view offers a unique perspective of Thessaloniki, allowing us to appreciate the city's complex history and its stunning beauty. The rooftops, with their various textures and colors, add an intriguing layer to the landscape, inviting us to explore the stories that lie beneath.
