09/2021 The special thing about Meteora are the rock formations. Like stone pillars, the rock towers up to 600 meters high. There are still 6 monasteries in use today on the rock pillars. There were once 24 monasteries that were built and used there from the 14th century. Today the Meteora area is a Unesco World Heritage Site.
