2Matera, Basilicata
This village in southern Italy is also referred to as the “Città dei Sassi”, or “city of stones.” This charming spot is an official UNESCO World Heritage Site. It earned that honor for both its uniqueness and its beauty.
Some travel mavens say this place in Italy is one of the most ancient and beautiful places on the planet. It owes a lot of its fame to the memorable sassi, ancient cave-residences that were carved right into the surrounding hills’ rock. It has been used as the setting for multiple motion pictures as well. Veteran visitors suggest staying at the exceptional Sextantio Le Grotte Della Civita.
