Meteora -an air of mystery, access was challenging, limited to precarious rope ladders or baskets

Some stories speak of supernatural beings guarding the monasteries or mysterious events occurring within their walls. The construction of the monasteries atop towering rock pillars was not only a feat of engineering but also created an air of mystery. In the past, access to the monasteries was challenging, often limited to precarious rope ladders or baskets lifted by ropes.
