Silvia Colloca Instagram – Matera! ❤️
Add this magical town to your bucket list. In italy its known as La Città Dei Sassi, the stone city, as it’s entirely carved out of stone. It was only 60 years ago that local villagers resided in cave dwellings, with no electricity, and their animals to keep them warm in the harsh winter months. Some 30 years later UNESCO heritage listed this gem and proclaimed it Patrimonio dell’Umanitá , world heritage. What’s even more beautiful than the city itself is it’s villagers, the Lucani who embody the generous and convivial spirit of the Basilicata region with pride and humility. Go back one post to see some beautiful village life! And yes, Matera is NOT in Puglia! It’s in Basilicata!
