Waterfalls

 ApatiGR Says:  A must see thing if you visit Edessa. I didn't believe my eyes that there is such a spot just a mile away from main city. It is a great place to get plenty of photos and have a cup of coffee. Go and you won't regret. You can also shop near at the streets shops on your way...

I forgot the name :D: Great food and service, Edessa

 Vanity666 Says:  I forgot the name of the restaurant, but it's the one besides the stream.The moment we sat, one waiter came with a fresh tablecloth, another one with a jug of ice-cold water, and the third one took out order. My girlfriend and my sister's boyfriend ordered trout, but I don't...
