1000places > METEORA, GREECE: CLIFFTOP SANCTUARIES IN THE CLOUDS - Continuing our journey northward, we reached the Plain of Thessaly and encountered massive granite pinnacles. At the top were monasteries, the earliest built in the 14th century by monks seeking refuge from Turkish pirates. This is the Monastery of the Holy Trinity.
1000places > MACHU PICCHU, PERU - One last look at one of the great archaeological wonders of the world.
1000places > MACHU PICCHU, PERU - Descending some of the pathways at Machu Picchu gave us the feeling we were stepping off into the abyss.
1000places > SAN ANTONIO PALOPO, GUATEMALA - Ever curious of passing tourists, a young child looks out from her house as we pass by. Notice that underneath her sweatshirt she wears the traditional weave of her village.
1000places > SAN ANTONIO PALOPO, GUATEMALA - Along the banks of Lake Atitlan, these young girls watched as we departed the village of San Antonio Palopo.
1000places > CORINTH, GREECE - The Temple of Apollo is Corinth's dominant feature. Built in 550 B.C., it was one of the buildings preserved by the Romans when they rebuilt the site in 46 B.C. (after having razed it a century before).
1000places > CORINTH: ELEGANT RUINS IN GREECE'S FIRST "SIN CITY" - Our first stop was Corinth. In ancient times it was a rollicking town - one of Greece's richest trading centers and the site of a temple dedicated to Aphrodite, the goddess of love, where Greeks went to frolic with "sacred" courtesans.
1000places > ATHENS, GREECE - To reach the top of the Acropolis, visitors climb the steps to the Propylea, the entryway to perhaps the greatest architectural masterpiece on the planet.
1000places > ATHENS, GREECE - Some say the Parthenon is more striking from a distance...less obvious construction cranes, a more dramatic setting. But we found the "up-close" view to be just as spectacular.
