The Meteora Monasteries (Greek Μετέωρα (n. pl.)), located east of the Pindos Mountains near the town of Kalambaka in Thessaly, Greece, are a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The monasteries of Metamórphosis, Varlaám, Rousánou, Agía Triáda, Agios Stéfanos and Agios Nikólaos Anapavsás are still inhabited today and can also be visited. Each of the monasteries is closed on a different day, so they are never all closed at the same time.
Please note the dress code for visitors. Shorts are taboo for men, while miniskirts and off-the-shoulder tops are not tolerated for women. Dresses and skirts are also seen more favorably on women than pants; In some monasteries, women wearing pants are asked to put on an apron, which can be borrowed at the entrance.
