Transcript

NARRATOR: Atop isolated crags and pinnacles in the Cambunian Mountains of Thessaly, Greece, is Metéora, a group of Orthodox monasteries erected from the early Middle Ages through the 16th century. Once, these remote monasteries could be reached only by rope and net. Rock-cut steps and a highway built in the early 1960s have made them accessible to tourists.
