Meteora, Where architecture meets nature in Greece

Meteora is a site of Greek Orthodox monasteries built on rock pillars, constructed by monks between the 14th and 16th centuries using ropes and ladders. These monasteries provided solitude and protection from invasions. Today, six of the original 20 monasteries remain, inhabited by monks and nuns. Meteora is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its natural and artistic significance, with monasteries that blend seamlessly into the landscape, appearing to defy gravity.
