Madeola Monastery is known as "the city of the sky-middle of the sky"" more dangerous than China's hanging temple, the mountains are not high, but straight up and down, steep. In 1988, it was listed as a world cultural heritage by UNESCO. The six main monasteries are called The Holy Monastery of Great Meteoron, The Transfiguration, The Holy Monastery of Varlaam, The Holy Monastery of Rousanou, The Holy Monastery of St. Nicholas Anapausas, The Holy Monastery of St. Stephen's Monastery of St. Stephen. The Monastery of the Holy Trinity. These monasteries are built around a central courtyard surrounded by monk's rooms, chapels and canteens. The centre of the courtyard is the cathedral (Katholikon). According to reports, there is a Panshan Highway leading to various monasteries, the main asphalt road surrounded by the entire Medeaola rock area and monastery, a total length of 15 kilometers. There are also trails across the region that may be paradises for hikers or rock climbers. Tickets are 3 euros and no photos are allowed in the cathedral. There is a lookout nearby to take panoramic views of four monasteries.

    From Athens all the way to Medeola, the scenery on the road is really beautiful, lunch on the way, by the way, visit the attractions on the way, and arrive at the town of Karanpaka at the foot of the mountain in the afternoon, and rest in Kalambaka for one night. The next morning, the driver took us straight to the largest monastery, Meteora Meteora, in central Greece, 20 meters low and 400 meters high, towering over the plains, which in Greek means “floating in mid-air.” I have to say that the domestic Beijing driver brother I found in Athens is very good! Driving smoothly all the way, and it was quite fast. People are also very humorous, and they also gave us explanations all the way. In order to thank him, I specially recommended it for him (if you want to contact him, you can ➕ he WX:greece1981 to understand the car). It is said that in the 14th century, the Serbs invaded the Thessalian region, and a large number of practitioners came to Meteora to escape the unrest, and built a monastery on the strange rock boulders, which earned it the reputation of the "City of the Sky". UNESCO has listed it as a world heritage, a dual cultural and natural heritage, which is quite valuable, and currently only 28 sites in the world, Greece alone accounts for two: Meteora and Mount Athos, which are worthy of being historical countries. I heard that there are not many Chinese here in China, so the most seen in Europe are backpackers. Although this place is more than 300 kilometers away from the city of Athens, it is definitely worth a trip!

    Medeola not only has beautiful natural landscape, but also a famous monastery. The huge mountain here is actually a large boulder. Every time the sun sets, the sky is colored and dyed, plus the mountains here, it is really beautiful.

    Medeola is 380 kilometers from the Greek capital Athens, which means suspended in the air. There are now six monasteries for visitors to visit the "City of the Sky". The monasteries there originated in the 11th century, mostly built on the boulder-like mountains of Huangshan, and the isolated monasteries on the cliffs are breathtakingly beautiful.

    The autumn sky city of Medeo Latina is suffocating, and the quaint monastery is built on steep cliffs, like a fairyland.

    The original meaning of Meteora is "hanging in the air". Lincoln Park's album named "Meteora" is like "city in the air" in music, reaching a new level of ecstasy. The cliff of Meteola, the city of the sky, was originally a sedimentary rock of the Inland sea. With the vertical crustal movement, the area pushed out of the sea at an oblique angle. With the subsequent weathering and erosion, the cliff of the sky, which today rises into the clouds, was formed.

    It is recommended that Trip.com directly use the name of Meteora. Kalamabaka is a small town under the mountain. The name of the train station. Athens and Thessaloniki have trains to this place, but they are not as strong as the international name Meteora. The six monasteries that exist are built on top of the boulders, and it is impossible to imagine the spirit and perseverance of the monks who built these masterpieces to God in the unseen mountains. This area is near the Greek mythological residence of the gods on Mount Olympus, where only the imagined residence is located, but the monks have established a place of submersion dedicated to God on the top of the mountain of Meteora...

    Different Greece. Athens and the islands are not the only places to go to Greece. Madeola, the real city of the sky, is also a good choice. From Athens rental car all the way to live for two days, the air in the mountains is really good, but also have to admire the wisdom of predecessors. So the red wine braised mutton here is really delicious.
