Amaliapolis, Greece. Αμαλιάπολη (Μιντζέλα) Μαγνησίας.

Another small, picturesque village by the sea in central Greece is Amaliapolis. A century ago, the borders between Greece and Turkey were here. Now it is a quiet village, a little far away from the main road from Athens to northern Greece. It is a fishing village and one can enjoy the seafood and quietness of the place.
Η Αμαλιάπολη Μαγνησίας. Ένα μικρό ψαροχώρι στον Παγασητικό. Ονομάστηκε έτσι προς τιμήν της βασίλισσας Αμαλίας που την επισκέφτηκε όταν τα σύνορα του Ελληνικού κράτους εκείνης της εποχής, έφταναν μέχρι εδώ. Μέχρι τότε ονομαζόταν Μιτζέλα. Εδώ υπάρχει πολλη ησυχία και πολύ καλό και φρέσκο ψάρι.
