Matera, Italy


Another city with interesting houses, these are called Sassi, they are mostly carved into the rock, with facades built over the cave. The city was apparently used by Mel Gibson for filming "The Passion of The Christ" which doesn't make much sense to me (I don't really find it to be evocative of Jerusalem), but then I've never seen the film.
