A cycling trip in the history of Alexander the Great
Tour
Cycling and a historical tourism
The history of Macedonia has its roots in the very old times. It begins in antiquity and reaches, through the centuries, full of brilliantly intriguing pages of struggle, heroism, culture, action, disaster, victory and glory.
Philip IV organized Macedonia as a modern state of the time and laid the foundations of Greater Greece. Philip IV prepared the situation and gave a strong Macedonia to his son Alexander.
Alexander the Great Born in Pella, Macedonia in July 356 BC. His parents were King Philip II of Macedonia and Princess Olympiada of Epirus. He was one of the most important generals in history, and during the 13 years of his reign (336 – 323 BC) he conquered most of the then-known world east (Asia Minor, Persia, Egypt etc), reaching on the outskirts of India, and without losing in a battle he himself fought.
