Katskhi Pillar
Katskhi Pillar is a solitary monolith in Georgia, standing over 40 meters high with a small church built on top. The house atop the pillar is only accessible via a vertical ladder, making the journey perilous for anyone attempting to visit. Monks once lived in isolation here, choosing the location for its remoteness and closeness to the heavens. The climb itself, combined with the precarious height, makes this one of the most dangerous and thrilling homes in the world.

High Place of Sacrifice
Located in the ancient city of Petra, the High Place of Sacrifice is a sacred site carved into the cliffs, high above the city. Although it’s not a house in the traditional sense, the structures around it once served as homes for priests. Reaching the High Place requires a challenging hike up steep, narrow stone steps that wind through the cliffs. The stunning view of Petra from this vantage point, along with the vertigo-inducing climb, makes it a thrilling destination for adventure lovers.
