AIR OF BASILICATA - It is a ghost town, very beautiful perched on the Lucanian Dolomites. The tour is accompanied by a trained guide who explains everything about the country and why it became an abandoned country. Very characteristic you can breathe the real air of Basilicata, to know that some scenes of the film The Passion by Mel Gibson were filmed here. During the visit you are provided with a helmet and the visit is really worth doing, an evocative country.
