    Una bellissima esperienza quella della passeggiata nel parco della Murgia e sul Ponte Tibetano. Uno spettacolo, ma ciò che ha reso tutto così bello ed emozionante è stata la nostra guida Tania così disponibile e preparata da immergerci in questo favoloso luogo. Grazie davvero, da vedere assolutamente.

    Parco della Murgia Materana

    Since 2007, the Regional Park of the Rupestrian Churches of Matera has also been declared a World Heritage Site. It is a large rocky hilly area marked by deep karst fissures called: "Gravine". The show that appears before the eyes is truly breathtaking, since the whole inhabited area of the Sassi appears in all its splendor beyond the ravine. During this historical-naturalistic walk, the visitor will be able to follow the path of man: from the Palaeolithic settlements to the entrenched Neolithic villages of "Murgia Timone", from the pastoral communities of the Middle Ages to the rock settlements of the Greek-Byzantine hermitic communities that plateau they founded monasteries, graduations and Rock Churches. Along the route of this guided trek you reach the bottom of the valley of the Gravina torrent.
