Kavala, Port city in Eastern Macedonia, Greece

The city extends across terraced hills overlooking the Aegean Sea, featuring white buildings, red-tiled roofs, and a stone fortress at its peak.

The settlement, established in the 7th century BC as Neapolis, served as a crucial trading post between Europe and Asia during ancient times.

The Philippi Festival takes place in the ancient theater from July to September, presenting theater performances, music concerts, and dance shows.

Ferries depart regularly from the central port to Thasos island, while the international airport connects the city with European destinations.
