One of Greece’s oldest rivers, the Richeios River, has been running for generations in the Macedonian Tempi valley. The river empties into the Gulf of Strimonikos at its terminus, which is Volvi Lake.
Significant historical significance also rests on the Macedonian Tempi valley. Situated close to the present-day settlement of Rentina are the Agia Marina church, the Artemisio, and the fortress of Rentina.
