Matera is a fascinating place with cave dwellings called sassi that date back to the Paleolithic era. These ancient dwellings have been refurbished into modern homes, hotels, and restaurants while preserving their unique charm. Walking through the narrow streets and alleys, I felt as if I was wandering through a time capsule of history. The landscape and the rugged terrain coupled with the ancient air of the city transport you back in time. The history of the city is intriguing and a reminder of the resilience and ingenuity of human beings.
