Basic room but nice and clean. Similarly for the toilet… …basic but clean. Checked in at our hotel Pyrgos Adrachti for a night. Booked the room with Meteora view that came with a balcony.
The monasteries were not opened everyday but with a schedule. For this day, we were going to 3 of them which was opened. First one was to Holy Trinity Monastery.
From a distance, we saw this monastery which had a stairway that starts from forest below and up to the side of the cliff. This is the Holy Trinity Monastery Its quite an arduous climb to this monastery but an interesting experience. Walking into the monastery. We saw this rope device that was used to for bringing stuff from the bottom to the monastery. One of the room with the decorations at the bottom of the ceiling. Walls made of rocks and bricks in another room which was decorated with these paintings which was amazing. Small monastery but nonetheless quite a sight. Another panoramic while we travel to another St. Stephen’s Monastery.
St. Stephen’s Monastery On the inside of the monastery There’s a little park From here was an excellent view of the town below View of Holy Trinity Monastery from St. Stephen’s Monastery.
Took a panoramic view of the the monastery. Leaving the monastery.

Going to one of the biggest and most beautiful. Holy Monastery of Great Meteoron The views were just amazing Not easy to get there, some climbing expected At the entrance While climbing the stairs Here is another pulley system for bringing things up The walls and floors made of stones Pots and Pans of the kitchen Kitchen In the compound Little bell tower and gardens
View from the monastery… Simply can’t get enough of this
After visiting 3 monasteries, there weren’t any more time left as the rest have closed. The tour guide then brought us to the City Center where we bade farewell. We then went to get some dinner.
Came to this little restaurant called Panellinio. Ordered chicken Some vegetables And pork chops The restaurant on the outside There’s a nearby fountain Then it was still early so we roamed around in town for a bit. Then we entered a little cosy coffee place called Erōphilē to rest and chill for a bit before going back to the hotel.
