EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, the bustling Hotel Street in Alexandroupoli, Greece, comes alive with a vibrant blend of cultures and architectural styles. The image, taken in the early 20th century when Alexandroupoli was still under Ottoman control, captures the unique historical charm of this coastal town in northeastern Greece. Hotel Street, also known as Dedeagatch Street, was the heart of the city's commercial and social scene. The street was lined with elegant hotels, cafes, and shops, attracting travelers and locals alike. The Ottoman influence is evident in the traditional Turkish houses with their ornate wooden balconies, intricate stonework, and colorful shutters. Greek and Ottoman flags fly side by side, symbolizing the coexistence of the two communities. The Treaty of Lausanne, signed on July 24, 1923, affirmed that Western Thrace and Alexandroupoli would be controlled by Greece. However, this photograph captures a moment in time when the city was still under Ottoman rule, offering a glimpse into the rich history and multicultural heritage of this fascinating region. Alexandroupoli, located near the Turkish border, has a complex and intriguing history. It was founded in the 16th century and has been ruled by various empires, including the Ottomans, Russians, and Greeks. The city's strategic location and diverse population have contributed to its unique cultural identity, which is still evident today. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of Alexandroupoli and its vibrant past. It invites us to explore the stories and memories that lie hidden within its walls and to appreciate the beauty and complexity of this remarkable place.
