When I researched Meteora, I expected to see something wonderful. What I saw and experienced was magic.
I could see for myself the spectacular beauty others expressed when I said that I was visiting Meteora.
This place with its majestic monasteries perched on the rocks is a breathtaking experience.
Visited in October and the weather was perfect without the heat.
We visited the five out of six monasteries : The Holy Monastery of Great Meteoron - The Holy Monastery of Varlaam - The Holy Monastery of Rousanou - The Holy Monastery of St. Stephen and the last one The Monastery of the Holy Trinity .
