The Corestia region offers a journey through time - an experience of wandering through abandoned villages between mountains and streams, which bring the magical landscapes of Macedonia into fascinating stories of heroism, culture and endurance. This is a place where every reddish stone house and every abandoned street tell of a life that once existed here, of dreams, hopes and struggles. A route in Korstia takes visitors between the past and the present, in a magical and breathtaking landscape, which gives the feeling of a real journey in time.

Tsandonis, the freedom fighter from Agra, is not only a historical figure who fought for Greek freedom. He is a national hero who continues to inspire generations of Greeks. His legacy is preserved not only in the stories of his heroism but also in the music, the local legends and the mountainous landscapes in which he fought. In Greece, as in many cultures, heroes like him represent the close connection between the national struggle and culture and heritage. They remind us that a culture is incomplete without heroes like Katsandonis, who embodied the indomitable spirit of the Greek people.

Florina, the capital of the Florina region in northern Greece, is a town with a rich history, spectacular views and diverse culture. Located close to the border with the Republic of North Macedonia, it is known for its local agriculture, especially its pepper crops and boutique wineries. Throughout history, Florina passed through many hands, from the Greeks and the Romans, through the Byzantines, the Ottomans and the Bulgarians, until its final liberation in 1912. Florina is also an important cultural center with museums, art schools, and a university. The Sakolba river that runs through the center of the town is the focal point for a beautiful promenade. In addition, Florina is considered a center of Greek cinema, with a famous director such as Theo Anglopoulos shooting famous films there. The town offers unique skiing experiences at the nearby Vigla site, and is also an area where you can encounter bears in the wild. In the past, a small Jewish community operated in Florina, but today there is no trace of this community, apart from its historical story. Florina offers visitors a special combination of nature, culture and rich history.
