Arch of Galerius
The Arch of Galerius is a brief open-air Roman stop in central Thessaloniki. It fits easily into a walking day and asks for close looking rather than a long scheduled visit.

Pause close enough to read the campaign scenes in the stonework, then step back to see how the arch sits in today’s pedestrian street. This is an outdoor encounter with the Roman imperial city, distinct from entering the nearby Rotunda. It works well as a brief link between the excavated palace area and the larger domed monument.
Useful to know
Look at the relief panels from both sides of the pedestrian crossing.
