In fact, parts of the <strong>bicycle paths<\/strong> are located on the coastal front of the city, making this way the walk to the port, even more interesting.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Shopping from organic folk.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>It is set up every Saturday morning, next to the fish market. Producers from all over Thessaly come to this popular market. Neat and &#8230; quiet (compared to the most&#8230; noisy Athenian) will load you with bags containing all the goodies &#8211; pomegranates of St. Lawrence, clementines, chestnuts, hot red peppers, apple cider vinegar, tsipouro, handmade jams with Pelion fruits and much more.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Tsalapatas Multiplex.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>On the west side of the city, focusing on the &#8220;<strong>N. &amp; S. Tsalapatas Rooftile and Brickworks Museum<\/strong>&#8220;. The Voliotes brothers<strong> Nikolaos<\/strong> (1874-1930) and <strong>Spyridon<\/strong> (1886-1967) <strong>Tsalapatas<\/strong> founded in 1920s a brick and tile factory. It operated for almost half a century and was identified with the industrialization of Volos. Today&#8217;s museum is housed in the old factory area, which in itself makes a visit to this place very special. Visitors get a closer look at the technology and work ethos of the time: from the wagons and the transportation of soil to the mill&#8217;s loft to the <strong>Hoffmann bakery<\/strong>, where the fire once passed. Tsalapata is also an excellent choice for a walk because here you will find very interesting restaurants and you will enjoy beer and food and wine.<\/p>\n<h3><strong><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/exploringgreece.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sidirodromikos-stathmos-voloy.jpg.webp 1100w, https:\/\/exploringgreece.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sidirodromikos-stathmos-voloy-300x200.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/exploringgreece.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sidirodromikos-stathmos-voloy-1024x682.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/exploringgreece.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sidirodromikos-stathmos-voloy-768x512.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/exploringgreece.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sidirodromikos-stathmos-voloy-600x400.jpg.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-45626 webpexpress-processed\" src=\"https:\/\/exploringgreece.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sidirodromikos-stathmos-voloy.jpg\" alt=\"The building of the Volos Railway Station\" width=\"1100\" height=\"733\" srcset=\"https:\/\/exploringgreece.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sidirodromikos-stathmos-voloy.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/exploringgreece.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sidirodromikos-stathmos-voloy-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/exploringgreece.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sidirodromikos-stathmos-voloy-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/exploringgreece.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sidirodromikos-stathmos-voloy-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/exploringgreece.tv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/sidirodromikos-stathmos-voloy-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px\"><\/picture>The building of the Volos Railway Station.<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Building with mustard fa\u00e7ade, triangular roof, and many details.
