Metsovo and Kipi - stone bridges
To make the journey from Thessaloniki more pleasant and easier, I suggest stopping in Metsovo. It is a large village, very popular among Greeks. People often come here for the weekend.
Metsovo, as well as the villages of Zagori, are built entirely in traditional style. In about an hour you can walk around the village and then I highly recommend a visit to the Laografia museum. Then have lunch in one of the popular meat taverns. Metsovo is also famous for its cheeses, so it will be a great idea to buy a couple of kinds to take with you on the road.

It may seem like a standard museum, of which there are many. But its highlight is the guided tour. This service is included in the ticket price. A person, who is in love with his native places, will tell you about them in a very fascinating way!

Kipoi
In Kipi village you will have an overnight stay. Leave your car on the main road or at the hotel, and walk to the two more bridges planned for today.
If it is not yet dark and you have enough energy, walk in the village and visit the church of Agios Nikolaos. In general, it is better to move around these villages on foot, because the streets are narrow and you might get stuck in a cul-de-sac or just not be able to park.
