Spectacular by drifterman

Visited here in Oct 2005 and thoroughly enjoyed a short stay. The old town is perched on the side of a gorge and some of the really old parts were inhabited until 1930s when the italian gov. re-housed them. Used as the set for classic film “Gospel According to St Matthew” it has hardly changed and if you can, view the town from the opposite side of the gorge for full effect. It’s a little known wonder – although a world heritage site.
