This photograph print, taken circa 1905, transports us back in time to the vibrant city of Thessaloniki, Greece, showcasing a collection of intriguing scenes and sights. In the foreground, a group of Bulgarian women from the picturesque village of Kiretz-Kuey (also known as Kiretch-Kieuy) are seen dressed in their traditional costumes, adding a splash of color and authenticity to the image. The village, located about two hours from Thessaloniki, was home to a significant Bulgarian population, and this snapshot offers a rare glimpse into their rich cultural heritage. Moving further into the frame, we come across the charming village of Karaferni, nestled amidst lush greenery and rolling hills. The quaint stone houses and winding cobblestone streets exude an aura of tranquility and timelessness.

This imposing structure, which dates back to the Byzantine era, has stood the test of time and continues to be a major tourist attraction. This photograph is an invaluable souvenir from a bygone era, offering us a glimpse into the diverse and captivating world of Thessaloniki and its surrounding areas. It serves as a testament to the region's rich cultural heritage and the beauty of its landscapes, making it a must-have for anyone with an appreciation for history and the world's diverse peoples and places.
