The Holy Monastery of the Great Meteoron, also known as the Transfiguration of the Saviour, is the oldest and largest monastery in Meteora, Greece. Founded in the 14th century by Saint Athanasios the Meteorite, this monastery is perched on a giant rock formation, giving it a breathtaking "suspended in the air" vibe.

Visitors can explore the impressive church dedicated to the transfiguration of Jesus, adorned with stunning 16th-century frescoes, and check out the museum showcasing historical codices and religious icons. Don't forget to soak in the amazing views of the surrounding landscape while you're there!
