Kyriotissa, with its narrow stone-paved alleys and beautiful houses of Macedonian architecture, the Jewish quarter of Barbouta with the Tripotamos River flowing beside its earth-colored buildings, and the 48 Byzantine churches, give Veria the distinct character of a traditional city. Mount Vermio, Koumaria, and Seli, with the Vlach customs and the picturesque ski resort, blend the white of the snow with the colors of nature, while Vergina paints the album’s pages in gold.
