Florina (Greek: Φλώρινα, known also by several alternative names) is a town and municipality in mountainous northwestern Macedonia, Greece. Its
motto is, 'Where Greece begins'. It is also the Metropolitan seat for the region. It lies
in the central part of Florina regional unit, of which it is the capital.
Florina belongs to the region of West Macedonia. The town's population is 16,771 people (2001 census).
The city's original Byzantine name, Χλέρινον (Chlérinon, "full of green vegetation"), derives
from the Greek word χλωρός (chlōrós, "fresh" or "green
vegetation"). The name was sometimes Latinized as Florinon (from
the Latinflora, "vegetation") in the later Byzantine period, and
in early Ottoman documents the forms Chlerina and Florina are both used, with the latter
becoming standard after the 17th century. The form with (φλωρός) is a local dialect form of χλωρός in Greek.
