Ladadika . Must go area . The area is located near the Port of Thessaloniki and for centuries was one of the most important commercial centers of the city. The name Ladadika itself comes from the existence of many wholesale shops in the area where mainly olive oil was sold.

It locates near the Port of Thessaloniki and for centuries was one of the most important market places of the city. Its name came about from the many olive oil shops of the area. Many Jews of the city were living there, while the so-called "Frankish district", with the French/Italian merchants and residents, was located beside. In the years before World War I it came to form the red light district, with the area starting to host many brothels. In 1985, Ladakika was listed as a heritage site by the Ministry of Culture. Its notable architectural style with 19th century buildings is preserved and protected. Nowadays, having undergone gentrification in the 1980s, Ladadika forms the entertainment district of the city, hosting bars, nightclubs, restaurants, and pubs in what used to be old oil stores and merchant warehouses, which spill out into a network of pedestrianized streets and small squares, like Morichovou Square, popular place for tourists.

Ladadika Ladadika is a historic district of the city of Thessaloniki. It is divided into the districts of Ladadika and Ano Ladadika. The Ladadika area is bounded by the streets "Ionos Dragoumi", "Tsimiski", "Salaminos" and "Admiral Kountouriotou" while Ano Ladadika is bounded by the streets "Tsimiski", "Fragon", "Leo Sofou", "Dodekanissou", "Vasileos Herakliou" and "Verias". The boundaries of the area are defined by the decree declaring it a "historic site" (Hellenic Ministry of Environment and Tourism/DILAP/G/24917/1598/24.5.85) and its area is 6.5 hectares and includes 24 economic islands, where around 300 business units are located, employing around 1400 workers. The area is located near the Port of Thessaloniki and for centuries it was one of the most important commercial centres of the city. The name Ladadika itself comes from the existence of many wholesale shops in the area where mainly olive oil was sold. Many Jews of Thessaloniki lived in the area, making it the old Jewish quarter of Thessaloniki, while the area inhabited by French and Italian merchants, "Frangomachalas", is located right next to the Ano Ladadika area. In the years before the First World War many brothels and taverns began to appear in the area, and after the Great Fire of Thessaloniki the area lost its dynamism. The period of decline lasted until the great earthquake of 1978 when it was abandoned for about two decades. In 1985, Ladadika was declared an area of cultural value by the Ministry of Culture of Greece. The particular architectural style of the 19th century buildings is preserved and protected. The particular importance of the area lies in the fact that despite its small size, it gives the visitor an idea of how Thessaloniki was built before the 1917 fire that razed 70% of the city. Today, having undergone a restoration process in the 1980s, Ladadika is an entertainment area of Thessaloniki, where many bars, nightclubs, restaurants and taverns are housed, where once there were oil shops and commercial warehouses. In Ladadika are the squares of Morihovo, Petrakaki Square, and in Upper Ladadika the Emporio Square with an exit to Polytechniou Street.
