PAPASTRATOS
Located on the seafront, this former tobacco warehouse (pictured) has been given a facelift to become the landmark of Volos. Surrounded by neo-classical buildings and looking out over the harbour, Papastratos is now a cultural centre and part of the university. Its terrace is where locals and students come to chill out.
