Halkidiki is located in northern Greece - 100 km far from Thessaloniki, the second largest city of Greece, where the international airport “Macedonia” is situated.

Halkidiki is actually a peninsula divided into three “fingers”, (or as Greek say “legs”) appearing as such on the map of Greece, which stretches into the Aegean Sea.

The three “legs” are Kassandra, Sithonia and Mount Athos and each of them have their own history, style and corresponding style life. Halkidiki is a perfect combination of golden sandy beaches, crystal-clear sea and mountains. This mix of different landscapes is probably what makes Halkidiki so different than other places in Greece and for many a preferred destination. The Mediterranean climate, the unrivalled natural beauty of sea and sun, the large number of various traditional villages, the historical sites along with modern resorts in harmony with the environment and the proximity to an international airport are probably the best combination for making Halkidiki a perfect choice when deciding to become a real estate owner in Greece.

At last but not least Halkidiki is also widely known for Mount Athos which is situated at the third “leg” of the peninsula of Halkidiki. Mount Athos is an independent monastic state and has a large amount of churches and monasteries. It is an orthodox spiritual center since 1064 and has an autonomous status since the Byzance. The area is forbidden to children and women (even female animals). The place has also a great artistic interest. The architectural style of the area had influences even in Russia and its painting school has marked the history of Orthodox art. Mount Athos in Halkidiki is today inhabited by 1400 monks and there are 21 monasteries, most of one can visit, provided a special permit is applied for some time in advance.
