Monastery of Varlaam at Meteora

While in Meteora, we did in fact have the opportunity to visit a monastery. It was still a functioning one, so much of the places I would've liked to take were prohibited, thus I only have two of the monastery.

The Holy Monastery of Varlaam

The Holy Monastery of Varlaam is the second largest monastery in Meteora. It was built in 1541 by a monk named Varlaam. The building's structure only took two months to erect, but the collection of materials took 20 years, climbing the large rock while carrying small amonts of building materials.
