If you're planning a bit of sightseeing during your trip, head to Sassi and the Park of the Rupestrian Churches— just one of the monuments in central Matera.

Viewpoint of Matera and the Sassi is just one of the landmarks located 0.7 mi (1 km) from central Matera, so you might want to stop by for a few pics during your trip. You could also start your cultural experience by heading over to the churches in the area.
