La città sotterranea

from $330.00

La città sotterranea, ‘the underground city’.

Natural caves in tufa limestone exposed as the Gravina cut its gorge. From Palaeolithic times all the way up until the 1950s, families called these caves home.

The complex of ancient cave dwellings and frescoed rock churches carved into the ancient river canyon rise up and down the rolling hills, wrapped with a plethora of steps, quiet winding roads and interspersed with splashes of olive-green vines. As this intriguing honeycomb warren of caves dwindles, it merges with the stark Murgia plateau, creating a breathtakingly unique sight.
