Despite the wars and the natural disasters, unique monuments of Byzantine architecture art and iconography are preserved in Thessaly,
such as the church of Porta-Panagia at the Trikala Gate, the monastery of Panagia Olympiotissa at Elassona and much more.
Thessaly is also an ideal place for someone who is intrigued by Byzantine architecture. Thessaly, however, was not to be placated even later.
