Rising to God 2

Greece
Region of Thessaly
The valley of Meteora(for more information please refer to the previous photo in the series)

his photo shows the monastery of St Stefano on top of a rock over 400m height built around 1470 with a rich decoration completed at around 1750.Initially the monastery had a very difficult approach requiring crossing the whole valley and then climbing to top in a basket. Later there was a rudimentary road from the back side of the cliff and ,presently,one can reach to the top via tunnels and 150 steps of stone.
