Our tour of Matera will also take us to Barisano, one of the famous Sassi of Matera. From the vehicle we'll see the buildings carved into the rock, such as the church of the Madonna delle Virtú or the church of San Pietro Caveoso, two of the most important places in this part of the city.
Finally, we'll see the Alvino 1884, a complex that functions as a hotel and event hall, and the sculpture park La Palomba, an initiative of the artist Antonio Paradiso.
