The region of Western Thrace is located in the northeastern part of Greece, close to the borders with Turkey and Bulgaria. It is a region of important historical status and beautiful nature, where the Nestos and Maritsa rivers pass through it and nourish its lands with dense green forests. What distinguishes the Thrace region most and encourages tourists to visit it is the picturesque landscape of mountain ranges, forests, and rivers, and the archaeological sites dating back to different historical eras such as the Middle Ages, the Byzantine Empire, and the Ottoman Empire. Thrace's border location, the different powers that ruled it, and the successive waves of migration towards it in different eras contributed to the formation of a unique mixture of peoples, cultures, religions and languages that made it a region worthy of visit and exploration.
