Matera – “Italy’s Ancient Cave City”

#holidayitinerary Matera – “Italy’s Ancient Cave City” 📌 Location: Matera, Italy Matera’s sassi—homes carved into stone—make it one of the oldest continuously inhabited places on Earth. I wandered its labyrinthine paths, stayed in a cave hotel, and learned about how this once-poor village became a cultural capital. At dusk, the golden glow over the cliffside caves is breathtaking. It’s haunting, beautiful, and totally unique.
