About this Event
Discover the breathtaking beauty and timeless allure of southern Italy in this virtual journey through Matera, the “City of Stone,” and the enchanting landscapes of the Murge. This tour takes you deep into the heart of Basilicata and Puglia, where ancient history, dramatic scenery, and unique cultural treasures come together to create an unforgettable experience.
Matera, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is like stepping into another world. Its iconic Sassi, ancient cave dwellings carved into the rock, tell stories of life thousands of years ago. From the ancient rock churches adorned with frescoes to the panoramic views of the Gravina canyon, Matera’s beauty is nothing short of magical.
But our virtual journey doesn’t end in Matera. Beyond the city lies the enchanting landscapes of the Murge, a land of rugged beauty, ancient traditions, and extraordinary sights. Here, gentle rolling hills transform into dramatic ravines, known as gravine, whose breathtaking beauty has left visitors in awe for generations. In the town of Gravina in Puglia, you’ll see the stunning landscapes that served as the backdrop for action-packed scenes in the James Bond film No Time to Die.
As we travel through the Murge, you’ll virtually visit places like Altamura, famed for its unique cathedral and delicious bread, and Castellaneta, a charming town perched on the edge of a ravine. Discover the quiet charm of Ruvo di Puglia, with its magnificent Romanesque cathedral, and lose yourself in the wild beauty of Alta Murgia National Park. Each village tells its own story, steeped in the traditions of this unique region where nature and culture intertwine seamlessly.
Whether you dream of visiting in person or simply want to escape into a world of history and natural wonder, Matera and the Murge will leave you in awe.
