Rent Minivan in Kavala

There are a lot of interesting architectural monuments in the city. The intriguing construction is the Kamares Aqueduct. It is a very beautiful three-level arched bridge that connects the historic quarter with the new one. Looking at the majestic bridge now, it is difficult to imagine that it was built in the 16th century. The bridge was erected by order of Sultan Suleiman the First. It has a length of 280 winds, and a height of 25 meters. Until the beginning of the 20th century, the aqueduct was used to supply the city with water. Recently it underwent a large-scale reconstruction.

Among the religious monuments, one of the most interesting is the Baptistery Saint Lydia, located in a very picturesque area, on the banks of the River Gaggiti. The main artifact of this church is the ancient marble font, which is still used for its intended purpose. The ancient church is an important pilgrimage site. A few years ago, a kind of modest hotel in which pilgrims can stay for a few days, was opened on its territory.

An incredibly fascinating event will be a trip to the Kavala Lighthouse, located at the highest point of the city. The lighthouse looks more than modest. It is a small white turret, on top of which is installed a lantern. Around the lighthouse is equipped with a spacious area, which tourists use as a viewing platform. On certain days, tourists are allowed to go inside the lighthouse and see its structure.
