METEORA, GREECE: EVERYTHING You Need to Know About the Floating Monasteries

Come and see the amazing monasteries at Meteora Greece which seem to float in the sky, above the clouds. Built in the 14th century to escape Greek invaders, the monks of Meteora built what is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Join us as we take a look at when the monasteries were built, how they were built, and what they're used for today. Let us know if you have any questions about our content or would like to see us cover other trailblazers throughout history. Thanks for watching!

Builders of an advanced society that knew and used powers far and above our level of knowledge. Not at all old school appearance, however. Obviously, a recent idea.

It was the Greeks, who gave the world democracy, theatre, mathematics, poetry, the greatest architecture in the western world and then raped and pillaged under brutal oppressive Ottoman rule for over 400 years 🤨 … I often wonder how much father ahead Greece could be had they not had their culture, language nearly destroyed by a barbaric tribe from the East.
