The view from Meteora Viewpoint.

If you walk along the Meteora trekking route, you will arrive at the Meteora viewpoint in about 2 hours from the center of Kalambaka. From this viewpoint, you can climb up the rocks and see the view of the town of Kalambaka and the monasteries on the rocks, making it a great Instagram spot. This is the highlight of Meteora, so be sure to go here. There are bus tours to go here to see the sunset. The cost is about 30 euros. 📍Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/83LyS9FSfb2x9hy19 #0yentripFebruary2025#Meteora

🪨☁️ Meteora | The moment of quiet stay between the sky and faith The monasteries standing in the mist are more shocking than in dreams When I came to this place called "Sky City", everything seemed to slow down. Those huge rocks are like the skeletons left by the gods on the earth, and the monasteries are like the traces left by faith in the world - unobtrusive, but extremely powerful. 🌄 My itinerary I took a train from Athens to Kalambaka and stayed for one night. The next morning, I set out from the city and took a minibus along the winding mountain road. Every time I turned a corner, the scenery in front of me was amazing To enter the monastery, you need to climb hundreds of stone steps, witness the gondolas that transport goods, and the herbs planted by the nuns themselves 🌬️ There is no hustle and bustle of the city here, only the sound of wind, bells, and the footsteps of monks. When you stand on the edge of the cliff and look at the mountains and clouds in the distance, you will understand that this journey is not just for viewing the scenery, but a stop for the soul. --- 🔔 Meteora travel tips 📍Transportation methods * It takes about 4.5 hours to get to Kalambaka by train from Athens (you can choose to go early and return late for a day trip, but you will be in a hurry) * It is recommended to arrange at least one night to spend more time to experience this sacred place 🕍 Monastery visit highlights * There are 6 existing monasteries open for visits (opening times vary from day to day, please check the official website or local travel service center before departure) * Recommended monasteries: Great Meteoron (largest), Holy Trinity (most beautiful view), Roussanou (gentle atmosphere) 👗 Dress code * Girls need to wear long skirts and cover their shoulders, and long pants also need to borrow scarves (scarves can be borrowed on site) * Boys need to wear long pants, not vests * It is recommended to wear hiking shoes or non-slip sneakers, as some stairs are steep and slippery 📸 Photo etiquette * Photography is prohibited inside the monastery, please respect the religious space * The mountain is windy and there are many cliffs, please be careful when taking photos! 🌅 Tips * The light is most beautiful at sunrise and dusk, which is also the best time to take photos * It is recommended to bring water, sun hats, and windproof jackets * There is a lot of walking and climbing on the way, please try to bring light luggage --- 📖 Summarize this trip in one sentence: "In Meteora, I am not going to climb the mountain, but to stay quietly in a world bigger than myself." If you are also going to Greece, in addition to the blue and white islands, please be sure to reserve a day for this sacred place floating in the sky. #Meteora #GreekTravel #SkyCity #SoulJourney #MonasteryGroup #SlowTravel #OnePerson'sScenery
