The Agia Triada (Holy Trinity) Monastery in Meteora is a filming location in the 1981 James Bond film "For Your Eyes Only." In the film, it appears as the abandoned St. Cyril's Monastery, where Bond searches for a stolen ATAC decoder and then confronts KGB agents. Despite the monks' protests, an exterior shot at the monastery was possible, but a set had to be built on a nearby rock for the interior shots.

The Agia Triada Monastery (Monastery of the Holy Trinity) is probably one of the most famous Meteora monasteries, Roger Moore was also here as James Bond on a deadly mission. The path from Kalambaka is sometimes quite steep and peppered with spectacular views. But it is also relatively well developed, so you don't really have to worry about your health, apart from the midday heat in midsummer. The tour is definitely worth it, then you deserve the view from the top (compared to the lazybones who drive up to the car park :-)). By the way, the monastery is closed on Thursdays, on other days the gates close at 5 p.m.

View of Meteora Monastery

Highlight • Viewpoint

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.
