#Matera Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Address:
75100 Matera, Province of Matera, Italy
Alberobello, an off-the-beaten-path travel destination in Italy you can't miss
Alberobello, an off-the-beaten-path travel destination in Italy you can't miss🍄 This is a small town located in the province of Bari, Italy, where all the houses are white with conical roofs, resembling mushrooms, hence it is also known as the mushroom🍄 town. Against the backdrop of the blue sky, the white houses are particularly eye-catching.
🚗 About transportation
Since it's a self-driving loop, we left Amalfi around 8 am and drove for over four hours to reach Alberobello. You can also take a train or bus from nearby to Alberobello train station, and it's less than a ten-minute walk to the center of the mushroom town.
🏨 About accommodation
Actually, I was a bit hesitant before the trip, but after playing, I found that not arranging to stay here was a very wise choice. Our itinerary was Amalfi-Alberobello-Matera. So we didn't stay in the mushroom town that day.
🅿️ About parking
There are many parking lots around, and we found one that charges per use. It takes about 2-3 minutes to walk into the town. 📍Detailed location: via cadore, 12, 70011 Alberobello Ba, Italy.
💎 Attraction introduction
Alberobello Museum, Church of St. Anthony, People's Square, Trullo Sovrano, and the Chapel of St. Medical⛪️.
💕 About sightseeing
The whole town is very small, it took us less than three hours to walk around from where we parked, including a lunch break. First, we went to the area of the church and Trullo Sovrano on the left side of the main street, then came down for lunch, and visited the mushroom house cluster on the right side.
