What travellers are saying
- Milena D18 contributionsBreathtaking. Unlike antything else you'll see. Beautiful to experience from the distance while approaching it via bus, just as much as it is in near sight. Prepare to take many photos. Bring extra refreshments due to the temperature.Written 30 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- bluebay06La Spezia, Italy2,571 contributionsIt is perhaps the most visited of the monasteries, always very crowded and the parking parking often full. We climbed the steps leading to the entrance, queuing for over half an hour under the sun. Although always crowded, this monastery is definitely worth a visit. Founded in the 14th century, this large monastery is full of frescoes, objects and sacred books and of course guarantees exceptional views of the monasteries around and the valley below. A must for anyone visiting this area.Written 13 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- bluebay06La Spezia, Italy2,571 contributionsAlthough there is a large car park in front of this monastery, it can be difficult to park. We parked along the road halfway between this monastery and Great Meteoron Monastery in order to visit both. Built at the beginning of the 16th century, this monastery stands on top of a large rock and is accessed climbing 195 steps carved in the rock. A easy climbing and a not particularly tiring staircase. The monastery is rich in frescoes and offers a magnificent view of the valley. Particularly interesting is the room where the rope net is located: The monks and materials were hoisted by hand in this rope in a climb that could last up to half an hour in which the net was swinging fearfully in the air at a dizzying height.A monastery not to be missed if you visit this area.Written 12 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- bluebay06La Spezia, Italy2,571 contributionsThis is probably the most beautiful of the six monasteries that can be visited. Situated at the top of a vertical rock, it can be reached by walking down a short path that starts from the road, where you can park, and then going up a long row of 130 steps to the entrance. This climb is certainly less tiring than it seems. The monastery itself is quite small and therefore the visit does not require much although there are some points from which you can see a wonderful panorama. If one doesn't have time to see all six still occupied monasteries, this is certainly the one not to be missed.Written 3 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
