An hour from Trani, crossing the Murgia Park and being able to enjoy a unique landscape for its charm and colors that change according to the light and the seasons, stands Matera, the City of Stones, Unesco World Heritage Site and European Capital of Culture for 2019.
After an unforgettable party at Donna Lavinia, an extraordinary opportunity could be to be accompanied by our shuttle bus service to a place that is an experience, more than a simple city: Matera constitutes, with its cave dwellings dating back to 10,000 years ago and its famous Sassi, one of the oldest human settlements in the world. Lavinia Group has selected a list of the most beautiful and exclusive hotels, residences and b&bs in the heart of the Sassi to directly experience the emotions of these places or, for those who prefer, on the Piano della Civita, to enjoy the breathtaking view. The event lived with one's guests can thus end in a surprising and vivifying way.
The Sassi di Matera are a timeless history book, modeled by man on the basis of his life and work needs, and crossed by mysticism and art. The latter is also surprising in places where sacred iconography preceded the art of the innovator Giotto by centuries but not modernity. The influence of Magna Graecia is significantly felt, which in the area has released numerous precious finds, now preserved in the Museum named after Domenico Ridola, who discovered them in the last century.
