Agia Triada Monastery, Meteora 
If Agia Triada (Holy Trinity) Monastery looks familiar, it's probably because you saw it in the James Bond movie For Your Eyes Only.
Aside from that great honor, the Holy Trinity Monastery boasts one of the most spectacular positions of the six Meteora monasteries – Agia Triada is perched atop a slender pinnacle and accessible only by 140 steep steps.
The one monk who lives here welcomes visitors and shows them around the monastery's church, refectory and courtyard. Visitors to Holy Trinity can also see the winch system used to bring people and supplies to the mountaintop monasteries.
