Description
This is an elevated photo of Thessaloniki, Greece, taken from the city castle at Trigoniou Tower. The sunrise colors the cloudy sky with warm pink, orange, and yellow pastel tones. The city's magnificent skyline is bathed in a warm light glow. Among the buildings are famous landmarks of the city such as the White Tower of Thessaloniki, the Rotunda and the OTE tower.
The light reflected in the cloudy sky has also painted the sea with pink tones. A few ships with their lights switched on are anchored in the Thermaic gulf. Snow capped mount Olympus, Greece's tallest mountain, is visible in the background.
The image was captured on a chilly winter morning. The city was so tranquil and calm making the early wake up totally worth it. A view like this makes sense why Thessaloniki is a famous travel destination!
