Matera the city of stones and the homes of caves in Italy

in #travel7 years ago

My witch and famous is one of the oldest villages in the world, which are listed in the UNESCO World Heritage list because of their homes carved into the rock, is the town "of Matera", which called the city of stones in Italy.

Is the capital of the province of Matera, located in Basilicata in Italy and boasts with the cave known as the "Sassi di Matera", a historic landmark well preserved in the rock one of the most important World Heritage Sites and the factors of tourist attraction in the south of Italy.

Matera is a city is relatively large, the city is old and one of its suburbs the most to attract visitors, and directly outside the old town you find suitable Sassi di Matera, excavated in the limestone rock, and sassy on the side.

On the north side there is a Live Sas Paris-Reggiano which has been developed commercially, in part to contain a number of offices and dwellings, the Sasso caveoso is located on the south side is the most interesting historically.

Access to Matera more easily than the city of Bari in the Puglia region, where the operation of the company vervie Apollo Lawson (FAL) sectors from Bari to the center of Matera, in the flights take off every hour or two, and hour and a half of time to reach.

If you come from Alberobello, the way to prevent the way to be by car, but there are also shuttle services.
