Monasteries of Meteora |
|
|
Take a stunning drive through the Thessaly countryside to Meteora’s monasteries in the sky
| Overview | |
|
Journey to Meteora—a place of pure devotion and isolation—where ancient monasteries are perched like coronets atop stark rock formations. Drive through the distinctive landscape of Thessaly, where verdant hills are punctuated by stunning cliffs, and small towns grow up around silver rivers. Experience the secluded beauty of Meteora’s cliff-top monasteries, where Greek Orthodox monks and nuns once retreated in search of a perfect, untrammeled peace. Lunch on local fare in a quaint village and enjoy panoramas of cloud-splitting mountains.
