Nea Ionia is one
of the most important districts of Volos. It was founded by the Greek refugees
who arrived in Volos after the Asia Minor Destruction and the burning of
Smyrna.The refugees had a huge impact
on the culture, economy and architecture of Volos. Visitors will have a tour at
the silk museum housed in the silk factory of Ekmetzoglou brothers, who
were refugees from Asia Minor. Then they will visit the Church of Evangelistria (the Annunciation)
and the football pitch of the local refugees’ team, Nike. They will have lunch
at one of the traditional Nea Ionia tsipouradika. The area has some of the best
tsipouradika because the refugees brought with them the tradition of tsipouro.
