Let us take you on a trip to some of [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2604420/Euro_Truck_Simulator_2__Greece/]Greece[/url]'s most important cities featured in our upcoming map expansion for [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/227300/Euro_Truck_Simulator_2/]Euro Truck Simulator 2[/url]. Today, we’re excited to give you a preview of Thessaloniki, Patras, and the capital city, Athens - each featuring a player-ownable garage!

Athens occupies a wide coastal plain that slopes down towards the Aegean, surrounded by the mountainous reliefs of Parnitha Penteli and Mount Hymettus.

You will get there through a major intersection we recreated including tollgates in the northwestern part of the city where four major routes meet.

If you want to find out more about how Athens is being developed, you can read an [url=https://blog.scssoft.com/2024/05/greece-building-athens-with-aartee.html]interview with our map designer Aartee[/url], who is in charge of putting together the capital city. [h3]Thessaloniki[/h3] Thessaloniki is the second largest city in Greece. It lies in the northern part of the country but is still located on the coast in the Thermaic Gulf. Its founding has been dated all the way back to the 4th century BCE. [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//4036972/19a4281436c0df5ee8df4d7e825f1b78a3b6a98c.jpg[/img] [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//4036972/f1b8f5f29eb85eeef16b253fed51fa4ef10356a8.jpg[/img] [img]https://clan.cloudflare.steamstatic.com/images//4036972/cf91ef9430ff45d23d57fccc27dc47dc594cdc39.jpg[/img] Truckers will enter the city close to the huge Thessaloniki KTEL Intercity Bus Station with its atypical and iconic round roof. Naturally, you will be able to deliver in and out of multiple industries in this city. We already showed you the huge [url=https://blog.scssoft.com/2024/09/greece-cement-plant-in-thessaloniki.html]cement plant in Thessaloniki[/url], but you can also haul cargo to a local gas station, cotton processing depot, logistics warehouse, container port, metal steelworks, a few construction sites, and a big oil refinery in the northern part of town.

Accompanying this bridge are historical fortresses on both sides of the coast - Antirrio Castle and Rio Fortress.

Regarding industries, you can deliver in and out of a supermarket, car dealership, logistic warehouse, building materials market storage, and a nursery.
