abstract:Egnatia Odos (, often translated as Via Egnatia, code: A2) is the Greek part of the European route E90. It is a motorway in Greece that extends from the western port of Igoumenitsa to the eastern Greek–Turkish border at Kipoi.
Some 71km after Thessaloniki, the EgnatiaOdos passes Veria, a small town with several worthwhile Byzantine shrines and nearby archeological sites like the ancient Macedonian Pella and Vergina.
Further into Epiros, the architectural wonders of the EgnatiaOdos start to come to life, with tunnels disappearing for miles into solid rock and the inevitable danger signs flashing over the roads zigzagging the cliff-tops.
