Archaeological Site of Aigai (Vergina) Vacation Packages
In 1977, on the southern Macedonia plain, 80 km southeast of Thessaloniki, at the foot of Pierian Mountains, one of the greatest archaeological discoveries of all time was made. The ancient city of Aigai, the first capital of the kingdom of Macedonia was brought to light. The richness of the finds is rare and of incalculable archaeological and historical importance, so much so that the territory of the kings of Macedonia, the land of Philip and Alexander, Eurydice and Olympia, were designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1996. The traveler who is lucky enough to visit the archaeological site of Aigai will be thrilled by the splendor of the Macedonians dynasty.
Tours to Archaeological Site of Aigai (Vergina) are available from Thessaloniki.
