Thessaloniki in Belgrade

I had the honor to be a guest to “Thessaloniki in Belgrade”, the presentation of Thessaloniki as a tourism, business, gastronomy, cultural, educational, and city break destination, was held at the White Palace in Belgrade.

The signing of the Partnership Agreement between Thessaloniki Tourism Organization and the Tourist Organization of Belgrade was followed this event, which is a very important step toward increasing the tourist flows and investments in both cities, led by a strong belief that this event further expands the relationships amongst our two cities and countries.

The official part of the ceremony was opened with a welcoming speech of His Royal Highness, followed by addressing of HE Mrs. Maria Levanti, the Ambassador of Greece in Serbia, Mrs. Voula Patoulidou, Vice Governor of Thessaloniki Region, Mr. Miodrag Popovi?, acting Director of the Tourist Organization of Belgrade, and Mr. Aleksandar Seni?i?, the Director of National Association of Touristic Agencies YUTA.

“The importance of manifestations like this is exceptional. We could spend days and days speaking about the sincere friendship between the people of Greece and Serbia and still could not cover everything that should be said. These brotherly connections have been shown and proven many times throughout history, and it is very important that we continue cherishing them and building even firmer bridges of friendship. Events like this make these bonds even stronger.
