Through the route, about 1 km, 50 minutes and of low difficulty, the visitor can browse the shops of old Xanthi. The route starts just above the central square and ends near Kavaki Square.

These shops are built basically according to the rules of neoclassicism. They exist independently or are integrated into two-storey buildings, whose second floor functions as a residence or are integrated into the ground floor of wealthy mansions and served the economic-commercial activities of their owner.

Many of them operate until today as café-bars, bookstores, workshops, pastry shops, etc.
