  • Journey to a land that looks like a film set, enhanced and at the same time undermined by the tourist boom that Matera has experienced in recent times. Hypnotic city, rippling the landscape like the many villages clinging to the ridge where you get used to "admiring the idle", Matera is the gateway to a landscaped and culturally very lively region, which the Green Guide reviews from the peaks of the Pollino to the gullies, from the archaeological parks to the beautiful beaches of both coasts, the Ionian one of Metaponto and the Tyrrhenian one of Maratea. Summary: Matera and the Murgia Materana The Basento and the places of Carlo Levi Potenza and the Potentino The Vùlture The Agri valley and the Pollino Maratea, the coast and the hinterland The Ionian coast Among the pages of this Green Guide: - Basilicata as an author in the itineraries of Franco Arminio, poet, writer, landscape expert, lover of the aesthetics of poverty at the forefront of the battle against the depopulation of small towns - Metamorphosis of stone : the millenary history of the Sassi of Matera from prehistoric villages to cave-dwellings, to charming B&Bs - On foot on the mule tracks of the gullies , caressing pinnacles and clay sculptures - Craco , silent visits to the phantasmal Italian ghost town - Excursions in the Parco del chicken among the loricate pines bent by the wind, in the solitary quiet of a still unknown Apennines - The bright seascapes and severe mountain scenery of the coast of Maratea , among vertiginous cliffs, soft beaches and wooded peaks
