Volos Meteora - Greece

Background: Next to the town of Volos, a port in the Thessalia region, the monasteries perched precariously on the towering cliff tops of Meteora, as if suspended in mid-air, are justifiably considered one of the seven wonders of the ancient world.

Attractions: A tour of Thessalia, visit to the town of Kalambaka, stunning view of the Meteora cliffs and their “suspended” monasteries.

Don't miss: A visit to the cliff top monasteries to wonder at the amazing building feat.
