Yeah, Ioannina is a very vibrant city, because it's basically the ''capital'' of the Epirus region.
They also have a big university there, so you see lots of young students, big nightlife, music concerts etc.
Pro tip: always carry an umbrella when visiting Ioannina, because it's one of the most rainy cities in Greece and yeah, the traffic is really bad, specially around the center during rush hour and the lake on weekends.
Ioannina is famous for his silver jewelry, the lake, tsipouro schnaps ( which is made out of grapes) and of course Ali Pasha and all the stories/legends who surround him.
He was the most powerful ''Pasha'' ( regional governor in the Osmanic Empire) during his time and eventually rebelled against the Osmanic Sultan and tried to establish his own little kingdom. Didn't work out though and he was eventually killed by the Sultan's men.
Ali Pasha was famous for his legendary wealth, his cruelty ( there's the famous ''Sycamore Tree of Ali Pasha'' at the lake shore, where he used to hang people, to make an example) and for his wars against the Souliotes, the battle hardened people of the Souli Villages who had resisted Osmanic rule for almost 300 years.
He finally managed to subjugate them after a series of bloody wars, which elevated his status in the Osmanic Empire. Despite being a tyrant, he did a lot for the economy/trade and was considered to be more tolerant than other Osmanic rulers, in how he treated Christians & Jews, having many Greeks in his employment, in his administration and even military.
Wow 😊 This information is so valuable. Thank you for this and sharing your knowledge with the community. Indeed, we also recommend visiting the city since it is one of its kind and still not very known amongst the tourists 💛
@@FeedingFoca You're welcome.
If you ever return to the area, definitely visit the cave of Perama, it has some unique stalactites and maybe ancient Dodoni with the ancient amphitheatre.
🚙wow Ioannina, finally it comes. When I visited it in April, there were so many things going on in the city center. Roads are steep, crowded with local greeks. When the evening came, many young people and teenagers hanged out, the life of a day really began.
It's a really lively city, right? When we were there we also saw a lot of cultural events, pretty cool. Did you like the food there? We found so many nice places to eat in that city haha 🤤
@@FeedingFoca I tried Bougatsa for the first time in Thessaloniki. I love it.☺ Endless delicious pastries and meat dishes but affordable , I really enjoyed it.
🤤🤤🤤
Also go to a little southern, preveza with incredible beaches and ancient Nicopolis and also Arta with history and beautiful Tzoumerka mountains
Thank you 😊 that are really good recommendations. We only went to Preveza very shortly, but it was beautiful.
Lee, I was impressed you could read the greek sign at the theater. Bravo! And the lady explains about Ali Pasha. I visited Ioannina in the early 70's and went to his house. Were you able to visit the salagtites and stalagmites cave while you were there? I enjoyed your video, thanks.
Thank you very much!!🧡 Unfortunately we did not have time for the cave, but heard that it is beautiful. 😊
Turks still some how think the Ottoman Barbaric way..
