Personal pictures from my tours in Macedonia, Aegae/Vergina (1st capital) and royal tombs of Philippos, Pella, the second Macedonian capital, from Aristotle's School. Hope you enjoy them.

Great photos, thank you. Do you know who the pair of busts are (the beared man and either a woman or youth)?

I really enjoyed browsing through these photos that you shared with us. It has kindled a desire to visit this same region now. Thanks so much. Jan

I never realized how big the Alexander and Bucephalus statue actually were until I saw the people standing under it. These are very good photos.
