Overview
We will take you on a tour of discovery of the hidden treasures of the old town. We will tell you the history of the town, from its origins to the present day, through the fascinating tale of its foundation and the various legends, the result of popular beliefs typical of southern Italy.
Our aim is not to tell the tourist about exceptional tourist phenomena or unknown places, but to observe them in a 'special' way, sometimes with an eye to the peculiarities of its natural phenomena (the caves, the Gravine, etc.), sometimes to the mechanisms of culture and history that are concentrated in these very places, sometimes just investigating a curiosity that might go unnoticed, a fantasy, a passion.
