Evros is the gateway to the East, both for Greece and the European Union as it is on the border with Turkey.
The river Evros winds its way peacefully through the county of the same name, on its way to the Aegean sea where the Evros Delta has been forged. The aquatic habitat and ecosystem here are indeed a rare sight and are amongst the most significant of their kind in the whole of Europe.
More than 200,000 water fowl spend the winter on the huge expanses of the Delta. Many of the 300 or so species found here are threatened with extinction.
As well as the Delta, the Dadia forest is also a haven for wildlife and rare birds of prey safely nest there, under the protection of the authorities.
The beaches of the county, with their blue flags, from Mesemvria to Alexandroupolis, also deserve a mention and are very popular with holidaymakers.
