Walking among the Sassi, a Unesco site since 1993, you can admire the landscape of the Gravina di Matera, a canyon created by the slow working of the Gravina stream, and the Murgia Materana Park, where hundreds of rock churches, hermitages and monasteries have found space, subsequently used by shepherds for transhumance.
