⁣ Canon EOS 250D ⁣ Taken on 19/04/2022.⁣ ⁣ *⁣ Matera is a city of pale gold limestone, just over the border from Puglia in Basilicata.⁣ ⁣ It has more layers than a sfogliatella pastry: its two cave districts, Sasso Barisano and Sasso Caveoso, are composed of individual dwellings carved into fossil-stuffed strata and stacked on top of each other like cells in a haphazardly constructed beehive.⁣ ⁣ They were inhabited from prehistory until the 1950s, when — overcrowded, poverty-stricken and disease-ridden — they were evacuated by the state.⁣ ⁣ Dubbed 'the shame of Italy,' Matera remained largely abandoned for decades—until in recent years.⁣ ⁣ The best way to appreciate the city’s labyrinthine layout is on foot. Wandering the 'Sassi', visitors shouldn’t be surprised to find themselves standing on a 9th-century graveyard, across from an impeccable Baroque palazzo and above an 11th-century church-turned-family home, where 700-year-old frescoes still color the calcareous walls.⁣ ⁣ Impactful, to say the least!⁣ ⁣ 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲:⁣ ⁣ 🚆 Matera is reachable by train via Bari thanks to a service provided by 'Ferrovie Appulo Lucane'.⁣ ______________________________________⁣ ⁣ #Matera #Basilicata #Italia #Italy #EuropeanCapitalOfCulture #CapitaleDellaCultura #SudItalia #BestCityBreaks #CondeNastTraveller #LonelyPlanetItalia #RoughGuides #BasilicataBellaScoperta #Unesco #Basilicata_Mania__ #BasilicataTuristica #BestBasilicataPics #DiarioTricolore_Basilicata #Basilicata_Love #Basilicata_Cartoline_ #MateraItaly #MateraInside #SassiDiMatera #VivoMatera #VolgoMatera #VisitMatera #ThePrettyCities #ItalianHoliday #BasilicataDaScoprire #BasilicataPhotos #BasilicataDaAmare (at Matera, Italy) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ci4nmqWK_iU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Pisticci - Basilicata Un piccolo borgo poco conosciuto, ma davvero grazioso. In particolare il rione Dirupo, che è stato inserito nella lista delle "100 meraviglie d'Italia da salvaguardare" stilata dal Ministero dei Beni Ambientali. 🏘 Ciò che lo caratterizza sono le sue casette bianche con i tetti rossi. ✴ Inizialmente questa zona era chiamata Casalnuovo, ma cambiò nome a seguito di un particolare evento. Nel 1688 dopo una forte nevicata (chiamata "la notte di Sant'Apollonia") tutto il rione franò. Le vittime furono oltre 400. Gli abitanti però si rifiutarono di abbandonare il proprio borgo per trasferirsi a valle, nonostante il Conte De Cardenas avesse offerto un vasto terreno di sua proprietà per la ricostruzione. ❗ Sembra che non fosse solo per legame affettivo, ma che gli abitanti avessero intuito il doppio fine del Conte: rendere affittuari tutti i pisticcesi. ✅ In memoria di quanto successo costruirono 300 "casedde" filari antisismiche, dal tetto spiovente coperto di canne e tegole, le caratteristiche "lammie".

I Sassi di Matera sono due quartieri di Matera, il Sasso Caveoso e il Sasso Barisano, formati da edifici e architetture rupestri scavati nella roccia della Murgia materana e abitati fin dalla preistoria. Nel 1993 sono stati dichiarati patrimonio dell'umanità UNESCO. Insieme al rione Civita (costruito sullo sperone che separa i due Sassi), costituiscono il centro storico della città di Matera. 🇮🇹 🇮🇹 🇮🇹 🇮🇹 🇮🇹 #matera #nonsoloviaggio #yallersbasilicata #yallersitalia #materamia #materalove #materacittadellacultura2019 #materacapitaleeuropeadellacultura2019 #materacapitaleeuropeadellacultura #materamazing #materacapitaledellacultura2019 #materainside #materaitaly #matera_in_photo #sassidimatera #isassidimatera #materafoto #basilicataphotos #basilicata #basilicata_loves #basilicata_super_pics #basilicataturistica #vivomatera #basilicatabellascoperta #basilicata_cartoline_ #basilicatatourism #igersbasilicata (presso Matera, Italy) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2LvFeviQJs/?igshid=1xntb7z2le2au

Mi piacerebbe aiutare questa regione che preferisco chiamare Lucania e non Basilicata. Vorrei avviare un nuovo tipo di turismo, che unisca le bellezze dei luoghi alla loro storia, alla cultura e alla prelibatezze alimentari.

⁣ Canon EOS 250D ⁣ Taken on 16/04/2022.⁣ ⁣ *⁣ Basilicata is a misshapen, green, rocky and mountainous piece of land stretching to two coasts and comprising the awkward instep of Italy's boot.⁣ ⁣ I say 'awkward' because there is no easy way in: no airports, no high-speed rail network and no major cities.⁣ ⁣ Matera is without a doubt gnarled crown jewel of Basilicata, but this little-visited region hides amazing works of art.⁣ ⁣ A short distance from Potenza is Tito, a town that was struck by an earthquake in 1980, leaving many people homeless. Incredibly, you can find a fascinating cycle of frescoes in the convent of Sant'Antonio di Padova painted by 'Il Pietrafesa in the 15th century.⁣ ⁣ 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲:⁣ ⁣ 🚌 It's best to take a bus to Tito from Potenza with 'SITA Sud'.⁣ ______________________________________⁣ ⁣ #Tito #Italia #Italy #Italy_Illife #Raw_Italy #MoodySky #BrowsingItaly #Basilicata #Basilicata_Mania__ #Basilicata_Cartoline_ #DiarioTricolore_Basilicata #BestBasilicataPics #VolgoBasilicata #YallersBasilicata #VolgoPotenza #Living_Destinations #TravelAndLeisure #Affreschi #LonelyPlanet #RoughGuides #CondeNastTraveller #TravelInItaly #BeautifulDestinations #Wonderful_WonderfulPlaces #TravelBloggerItalia #MadeInItaly #DiscoverItaly #Italy_Lovers #ItalyTrip #WeLikeToTravel (at Tito) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdbWx9nq0zH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

⁣ Canon EOS 250D ⁣ Taken on 16/04/2022.⁣ ⁣ *⁣ Not too far from Potenza – the regional capital of Basilicata – is an impressive stronghold called Brindisi Montagna.⁣ ⁣ Overlooking the Basento valley at 877 metres above sea level, Brindisi Montagna enchants visitors with its castle perched on the top of the hill.⁣ ⁣ The castle was built by the Normans and dates back to between 1200 and 1300. Part of the structure collapsed following the 1694 earthquake, but thanks to careful restoration it looks absolutely stunning and can be visited by contacting the local 'Pro Loco'.⁣ ⁣ Even if the castle doesn't happen to be open, it's nonetheless a great idea to walk up the castle grounds and admire a spectacular panorama of the surrounding landscape.⁣ ⁣ 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲:⁣ ⁣ 🚌 There's a bus service that runs between Potenza and Brindisi Montagna with the company 'Allegretti', excluding festive breaks.⁣ ______________________________________⁣ ⁣ #BrindisiMontagna #VolgoPotenza #BasilicataBellaScoperta #Basilicata_Cartoline_ #Italia_Mania__ #Italia #Italy #TravelInItaly #TravellingThroughTheWorld #CastlesOfInstagram #CastelliItaliani #SudItalia #CastlesOfTheWorld #WorldMasterShotz #InstaTraveler #TouringItaly #RoughGuides #LonelyPlanet #BasilicataDaScoprire #DiarioTricolore_Borghi #BestBorghiPics #TiConsiglioUnBorgo #BorgoDeiBorghi #VisitBasilicata #DiscoverItaly #ExploringItaly #Wanderlust #TheGlobeWanderer #YallersBasilicata #VivoItalia (at Brindisi di Montagna) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdX_d5TKW36/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

⁣ Canon EOS 250D ⁣ Taken on 15/04/2022.⁣ ⁣ *⁣ Much of Basilicata is an otherworldly landscape of mountain ranges, trackless forests and villages that seem to sprout organically from the granite.⁣ ⁣ Nestled in the jagged Dolomiti Lucane peaks in the Potenza province sit the beautiful side-by-side villages of Pietrapertosa and Castelmezzano.⁣ ⁣ Pietrapertosa is built entirely on the bare rock, almost embedded in it, taking advantage of every little nook and cranny.⁣ ⁣ It shows itself to the eye of the visitor as an ancient village that has somehow managed to preserve its medieval appearance.

⁣ Canon EOS 250D ⁣ Taken on 15/04/2022.⁣ ⁣ *⁣ The main mountain range in Basilicata is the 'Dolomiti Lucane'. ⁣ ⁣ This enchanting place is all deep valleys, spine-like ridges and weird rock formations.⁣ ⁣ At the heart is Pietrapertosa – Basilicata's highest village – and Castelmezzano. Both are recognised as the prettiest villages in Italy.⁣ ⁣ There are waymarked walking routes such as the 'Sentiero della Croccia' and 'Sentiero di Tempa Castello' to get from one village to the other.
