Pieces of Italy II
|
|
|
One of the cities I visited in southern Italy was Tursi. Set in a hilltop, the town grew around an original muslim setlement. Today there are still muslim architecture details well visible in the old town. The most impressive thing abot Tursi and most of the cities in that region, is that they are built on this hills of wet sand with thousands of years. This makes this cities the worst place to be during an earthquake. Almost every house has a basement wich is dug on the wet sand. You can actually dig this caves with your bare hands and you can find shells buried in that milenial sand
