Naoussa takes its place among the storied chapters of Greek history. At the foot of Mount Vermio, the Macedonians founded their first capital, Aigai, and laid the foundations of a kingdom that would one day reach across the ancient world. Wander the royal tombs of Vergina and the school of Aristotle at Mieza, where the philosopher tutored Alexander the Great, and stand witness to the legacy of those who came before.
