Personally I like the hills, made the ano polis an unique observatory! You need to dress up comfy with sport shoes and take the long way uphill..water and snacks can found anywhere on your way..as you climbing towards the city’s old fort, make a stop every since and look around you, the majestic views of the gulf and the city will pay the hard bill of going up;) There are a lot of churches, chapels and 2 monasteries worth to visit. If you get lost in the small streets-feels like in a Greek islands- just go down hill:) The food in this area is very descent priced and yummy. Every corner has a small secret taverna. H Stasi is a highly recommended place right in kalitheas square.

Thessaloniki's Upper Town called Ano Poli (Greek: Άνω Πόλη, [ˈano ˈpoli]) is the old town of Thessaloniki and is located around the city's acropolis north of the city center. The neighborhood is known for its well preserved Byzantine and Ottoman era structures and urban design and as a center for Thessaloniki's poets, intellectuals, and bohemians. Street beside the walls Ano Poli is one of the most traditional areas in Thessaloniki. The area preserves much of the Byzantine and Ottoman era city design which was largely destroyed elsewhere in the city in the Great Fire of 1917. It is known for its small stone-paved streets, old squares, and houses in traditional Greek and Ottoman architecture. Ano Poli is the highest part of the city and is dominated by the city's acropolis, a Byzantine and Ottoman era fort known as the Eptapyrgio. What remains of the old city walls still surround Ano Poli and many Ottoman and Byzantine structures such as the church of Profitis Elias, the Church of Saint Nicholas Orphanos, the Byzantine bath, the Church of Saint Catherine, the Vlatades Monastery, the Atatürk Museum, and the Alaca Imaret Mosque still stand in the neighborhood. Other landmarks include the buildings of Villa Moskof and Villa Varvara. During the Ottoman period Ano Poli was the main district for the Turks (Muslims) of the city while Greeks, western Europeans, and Jews lived below around the port. On clear days Mount Olympus, about 80 km (50 mi) away across the gulf, can also be seen towering the horizon.

Walk inside the narrow streets. Nice old houses in different coulors with wooden balconies to see. Go for your own exploration!
