I Sassi di Matera (pass by)

Matera is one of the oldest cities in the world whose territory preserves evidence of human settlements from the Palaeolithic and without interruption until today. It represents an extraordinary page written by man through the millennia of this very long history.World Heritage Site since 1993 and European Capital of Culture in 2019.With the classic and typical Ape Calessino ( tuk tuk), an Italian myth, which is very popular with families, especially with children in wheelchairs, we will cross the Old Town and the Sassi, as walking is very tiring, especially in summer, speeding through the narrow streets and alleys, making short stops for photos and videos and to visit churches in the squares and characteristic Case Grotte (House Museums).
