La Corte di Alzo

Pella was the capital of the ancient Greek kingdom of Macedon from the 4th century BC up until the Roman conquest in 168 BC. Pella was the birthplace of Philip II in 382 BC, and his son Alexander the Great in 356 BC. It is located 1 km outside the modern town of Pella in Central Macedonia, Greece.

As you explore the town, you'll notice the influence of the Roman Empire in its ancient ruins and architecture. Pella was once a thriving port town, and its rich history can be seen in its churches and museums, such as the Church of San Filiberto and the Museo Civico Archeologico. Take a stroll through the town's narrow streets and you'll discover hidden gems like the charming Piazza del Popolo, where you can enjoy a cup of coffee or gelato while taking in the picturesque views.

One of the highlights of Pella is its proximity to the stunning Lake Orta. Take a boat ride to the nearby island of San Giulio, where you can visit the beautiful basilica and enjoy a tranquil walk around the island. Or, take a hike up to the Sacro Monte di Orta, a UNESCO World Heritage site featuring 20 chapels and stunning panoramic views of the lake.
