Discover Xanthi
Discover the charm of Xanthi and the elegance of Xanthia Suites
Nestled between mountains and sea, Xanthi is a city where history, tradition, and vibrant everyday life come together. Known for its multicultural past, neoclassical architecture, and lively spirit, Xanthi offers a rich experience to every visitor. From the charm of the Old Town to the energy of the Saturday bazaar, and from artistic landmarks to authentic local flavors, it’s a place that welcomes you not just to visit — but to feel part of its story.
Experience the Heart of Xanthi
The Old Town is the soul of Xanthi — lively, colorful, and full of charm. With its cobbled alleyways, preserved mansions, humble homes, and a patchwork of languages and cultures, it invites you to wander and discover. It’s the perfect setting for slow strolls, where every corner tells a story. Stop by local cafés, try traditional syrupy sweets, enjoy a relaxed meal, or sip a drink under the city’s warm light.
Every Saturday, the famous Xanthi Bazaar brings the city to life. Known as the largest open-air market in Northern Greece, it draws visitors from across the Balkans. It’s more than a market — it’s a vibrant meeting point where cultures blend into a living mosaic of scents, sounds, and colors.
Experience the Heart of Xanthi
Don’t miss the House of Shadow, a truly one-of-a-kind art installation made from recycled materials, brought to life through light and shadow. The experience is made even more special with a guided tour from the artist himself.
And just at the edge of the Old Town stands the Manos Hadjidakis House — a beautifully restored mansion where the legendary composer once lived. With its ornate ceilings and historical atmosphere, it now serves as a cultural venue, dedicated to art, memory, and thought.
