The 6 Best Traveler Resources in Matera, Basilicata
Get to Matera quickly, because it’s still relatively undiscovered by foreign tourists. In town, visit the Domenico Ridola National Museum. Matera’s real claim to fame, though, and the reason it’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is the extensive series of cave dwellings ("i sassi") southeast of town, first inhabited by Benedictine and Basilian monks. You’ll see individual cells, chapels, and even some churches, many adorned with Byzantine decorations and frescoes.

Matera is a fascinating city, welcoming people and so much to see. We stayed near the Sassi and it was an easy walk to most attractions. It is worthwhile to take a guided tour of the Sassi area as it has many streets any ally ways that it is possible to loose your bearings. This city is a must see on any trip to Italy
