Mediterranean Cosmos, Thessaloniki

Mediterranean Cosmos, nestled in Pylaia on the east side of Thessaloniki, is a shopping and entertainment complex. Since its opening in October 2005, it has been recognized as the largest retail and entertainment development in Southeastern Europe. This sprawling complex hosts over 200 retail units, offering a diverse array of shopping experiences ranging from fashion to electronics. The mall doesn't just stop at shopping; it's a full-blown entertainment hub featuring an 11-screen multiplex cinema, a plethora of coffeehouses, restaurants, bars, a supermarket, and even an Amphitheatre with a seating capacity of 400 people. Adding to its unique charm is the Eastern Orthodox Church of Saint Andrew, providing a touch of spiritual elegance to the complex.

Strategically situated approximately 5 kilometers away from Thessaloniki International Airport, "Macedonia", Mediterranean Cosmos benefits from its proximity to the bustling suburb of Kalamaria and the Interbalkan Medical Center, making it a prime location for both locals and travelers. One of the mall's distinctive features is its interior design, which emulates the character of traditional Northern Greek cities through a network of roads and squares. This design philosophy blends the historical and cultural essence of Greece with the conveniences and modernity of a contemporary city center, offering visitors an unparalleled shopping and entertainment experience.
