Arch Of Galerius
The Arch of Galerius, also known as Kamara, is a triumphal arch in Thessaloniki, Greece. It was commissioned by the Roman emperor Galerius to celebrate his victorious campaign against the Sassanid Persians in 298 AD.

Rotunda Temple
The Rotunda, also known as the Church of Agios Georgios (Saint George), is a fascinating landmark in Thessaloniki, Greece. As you can see, it's right next to the Arch of Galerius, making it a popular destination for tourists. Yes, it pretty much resembles the Pantheon in Rome!
The Rotunda is a cylindrical building that was originally constructed in the early 4th century AD as a mausoleum for the Roman emperor Galerius.

Apsidal Hall of the Galerian Complex
The complex, built between the late 3rd and early 4th centuries AD, includes a Rotunda, a Hippodrome, the Palace, a Triumphal Arch, and the Arched Hall, among other structures.

Palace of Galerius
All this square and pedestrian area is built around the main Palace of Galerius.
The Palace of Galerius, part of the Galerian Complex, is a significant historical site in Thessaloniki. It was built at the turning point of the Roman and Byzantine worlds, with construction beginning in the late 3rd century-early 4th century AD when Caesar Galerius Valerianus Maximianus chose Thessaloniki as the seat of the eastern part of the Roman Empire .

Fanarioton Square
That’s the last part of our walking tour. We are leaving Navarino square behind and head to a recently renovated area, a small square with many bars and restaurants around.
