East of the Pindus Mountains, mighty sandstone cliffs rise to a height of approximately 500 meters. 24 monasteries were once built on their summits. Monks and nuns still live in six of them today. These monasteries are now UNESCO World Heritage sites and are often referred to as "floating monasteries" because they appear almost suspended in fog or low clouds.

The monks' love for God, monasticism and asceticism provided the impetus for this very special way of life on the rugged towers of the plain of Thessaly. Monasticism is the highest calling and the path that leads most directly to holiness. It is the complete dedication of man to God. It is the imitation of the angels in divine love, in song, in obedience and in the service of souls, which is why it has been called "equal to the angels" and the "angelic state". The whole life of a monk consists in opening the heart completely to God and obeying his commandments, constantly striving for holiness and praying incessantly. Whether at work, in study or in the silence of prayer, the monk calls unceasingly to the Lord in his heart with the short prayer: "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on us".
