About four hours drive north of Athens, in an area of incredible beauty and striking natural rock formations is the holy site of Meteora. Made up of 28 Monasteries constructed on the most inaccessible rocky ledges high above the Kalabaka plains, it is a testament to human endeavour and a monument to one of the darkest atrocities ever to befall the Greek people. Here you can discover what Eastern Orthodox monastic life was really like, and discover the little known history of the Greeks in Turkey and what their fate was under the Ottoman Empire.
