Is this a real place?

Total randomness here. I ran across this photo of a building I've never seen. It's an incredible looking place, but is it real?

I'm assuming it's a nicely done photoshop, but if not ... wow.

I think it's a photoshop. Take a look at pictures of Khao Phing Kan and I think you will see the "island" itself.

Yes, you're right. Funny thing is. I thought the church was real and the island had been cut away and photoshoped to fit, not the other way around.

If it was real, it would be sold at such a zillion dollar price.

^Oh I doubt that. I doubt you'd ever get an engineer's report for it.

Have you seen pictures of the monasteries in the Meteora region of Greece? They're pretty close to the above.
