City guide

Kavala

Founded as the port of ancient Philippi and enriched by the 19th-century tobacco trade; the Kamares aqueduct that crosses the city dates from the Ottoman period. Muhammad Ali, regarded as the founder of modern Egypt, was born here and his house is now a museum; the UNESCO-listed site of Philippi is close by.
