Impressive and unique landscape
A few kilometers northwest of the Thessalian plain, in the town of Kalambaka, is one of the most impressive landscapes in Greece, the rocks of Meteora. Many centuries ago, these huge rocks were formed, which are over 600 meters high and in which the hermits found shelter, founding one of the most important monastic communities in Greece. Meteora is a unique place and a top travel destination, because it is a complex of huge Paleolithic rocks and Byzantine monasteries on their steep peaks with unique relics and frescoes. Today, eight Holy Monasteries are preserved, of which six are in operation, four men's and two women's.
