'''Nea Moudania''' ({{langx|el|Νέα Μουδανιά}}, ''Néa Moudaniá''; often referred to as '''Moudania''' (Μουδανιά, ''Moudaniá''), the name of the municipal unit to which the town belongs, is the seat of the municipality of [[Nea Propontida]], [[Chalkidiki]], [[Greece]]. The town is 60&nbsp;km south of [[Thessaloniki]] and is the financial and commercial center of Chalkidiki, as well as its most populous town. It was built after 1922 by Greek refugees from [[Asia Minor]] who wanted to give the settlement the name of their hometown (now [[Mudanya]], [[Turkey]]), hence the addition of the word ''nea'', which means ''new'' in [[Greek language|Greek]]. Nea Moudania hosts the Department of Fisheries and Aquaculture Technology of the [[Alexander TEI of Thessaloniki|Alexander Technological Educational Institute of Thessaloniki]]. The town's harbor serves as [[Thessaloniki|Thessaloniki's]] adjuvant.
