The above video takes us on a tour of Matera, a city of rock in the Southern Italian region of Basilicata.
Fabled in cinema, the “sassi” or “rocks” of Matera have become a symbol of Italy’s south.
The town has been carved out of natural rock and the buildings share the hillside with natural grottos and rock formations.

This video is put together by Non Solo Moda, and while in Italian it might inspire you to visit.

A tour of the Città dei Sassi takes in the five star hotel of Palazzo Gattini, an aperitif at the 19° Buca Winery and dinner at Baccanti restaurant.
Matera, with its link to cinema and long history, is fast becoming a crossroads for modern art (as seen in the studio of Paola Di Serio) and tourism, and ancient Italy.
Why not take a look?
