Description
The Meteora (Greek: Μετέωρα, "suspended rocks", "suspended in the air" or "in the heavens above")is one of the largest and most important complex of monasteries in Greece, second only to Mount Athos.
The monasteries are built on natural sandstone rock pillars, at the northwestern edge of the Plain
of Thessaly near the Peneios river and Pindus Mountains, in central Greece.
The Meteora is home to six monasteries and is included on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

It's even overwhelming... Greece is very beautiful, it isn't one of my favourite countries, but it's beautiful.
I didn't know that there are monasteries in Greece, at least none exceptionally famous.
Well, reverting to your photographies, nice shoots, and very beautiful!
{You travel too much!}

Can you imagine having a house built up there. It would have to have a lift of course.
