Central Greece Region, Administrative region in mainland Greece
The Central Greece Region encompasses five regional units, including Phthiotis, Boeotia, Euboea, Evritania, and Phocis, with Lamia as its capital city.
Established in 1987, the Central Greece Region represents a significant administrative reform that redefined the governance structure of this mainland territory.
The regional communities maintain traditional festivals throughout the year, combining ancient customs with modern celebrations in mountain villages and coastal settlements.
The region provides direct access to both the Corinthian Gulf and the Aegean Sea, facilitating maritime connections and transportation networks across Greece.
The territory contains three major mountain massifs - Oeta, Gióna, and Parnassus - with elevations reaching up to 2,510 meters above sea level.
