Description
This panoramic view of Meteora, seen en route from nearby Kambala, showcases a series of majestic rock formations silhouetted under a clear blue sky, with verdant foliage in the foreground. These natural rock towers in the middle of Greece rise dramatically, creating a striking contrast with the greenery and the distant mountains on the horizon.
If you look closely, you will be amazed to see medieval monasteries built on the top of these imposing rocky cliffs!
The mind boggles considering how early monks ever succeeded in constructing these religious sanctuaries using an ingenious system of ladders, ropes, baskets, and nets.
At one time, there were 26 of these amazing structures!
