Another item which is better left on the shelves! Seriously, you can buy caps at home and I doubt you would wear your Greek cap everywhere…that’s unless you are a serious athlete and train a lot and you might actually find something useful to do with it. But still, the money can be used for something totally different.

Meteora, Greece: Varlaam Monastery

Eroded peaks of conglomerate rock tower above the village of Kastraki, Meteora.
The Greek word Meteora means “suspended in the air”, and our
words meteorite and
meteorology come from the same root.
The conglomerate rock at Meteora, Greece, has eroded into
fantastic
peaks upon which medieval monks built monasteries, several of which are
still active. The isolated monasteries of Meteora helped keep alive
Greek
Orthodox religious traditions and Hellenic culture during the turbulent
Middle Ages and Ottoman Turk
occupation of Greece (1453-1829). In 1988, UNESCO declared Meteora to
be
a World Heritage Site.

According to Wikipedia:

The Metéora (Greek: Μετέωρα, “suspended rocks”, “suspended in the air” or “in the heavens above”) is one of the largest and most important complexes of Eastern Orthodox monasteries in Kalambaka, Greece and is second only to Mount Athos.[1] The monasteries are built on natural sandstone rock pillars, at the northwestern edge of the Plain of Thessaly near the Peneios river and Pindus Mountains, in central Greece. The Metéora is home to six monasteries and is included on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Metéora’s criteria [2] for the UNESCO World Heritage Site are I, II, IV, V and VII.
