Mount Athos, Greece, evening

The so-called holy mountain towers 2033m above the Aegean Sea, its wild, forested slopes punctuated here and there by Greek Orthodox monasteries, where the monks live remote from the secular world and from the presence of women, who are forbidden to enter the autonomous region. From a slide taken in 1973.
