Route

1. Talking about a breathtaking scenery that satisfies even the most doubtful visitor, we definitely refer to Meteora. It’s a complex of giant rocks that seem to have been formed about 60 million years ago, while physical changes caused by earthquakes and erosions have contributed to the shape they have today. Meteora is the 2nd most appreciated monastery complex after the Mount Athos. The monasteries dominate at the top of the rocks, triggering thousands of tourists from all over the world to visit it. Unfortunately, out of the estimated 30, only 6 of them remain – the Monastery of Great Meteoron, the Monastery of St. Nicholas Anapausas, the Monastery of St. Stephen, The Monastery of Rousanou, the Monastery of Varlaam, the Monastery of Holy Trinity. Meteora remains a great mystery for many researchers who are trying to solve this geological phenomenon till nowadays. It was also included on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1988. Leaving Meteora behind, we will visit the picturesque town of Kalambaka where you can enjoy a traditional meal and have a short walk at its lanes.

About Athene

Athene zet de Akropolis boven een uitgestrekte moderne hoofdstad, waar antieke ruïnes, steegjes op de heuvel en lange tavernaavonden naast elkaar bestaan.

De Parthenon kroont de Akropolis, geflankeerd door het Erechtheion met zijn portiek van cariatiden, en het Akropolismuseum aan de voet van de heuvel toont beeldhouwwerk dat op de rots is gevonden. Daaromheen maken de Antieke Agora, de Tempel van Olympische Zeus, de Boog van Hadrianus en het marmeren Panathinaiko-stadion de klassieke stad gemakkelijk te belopen.
