going to alberobello was a hard decision because it wasn’t exactly on our way back and we were tired… but it was worth it! this city is worldwide famous for the typical houses called trulli. if you have seen them just on a picture as i did, it’s kind of magic being surronded by them. the white is everywhere, with splash of blue borders for the windows and bright pink flowers. the people are so nice and they explain everything about the construction, the simbolism… even the church is in a trullo! (first picture). we bought amazing homemade stuff there and i can say with no doubt that that’s one of our favorite cities!
andare ad alberobello è stata una decisione sofferta perchè non era esattamente sulla via di casa e noi cominciavamo ad essere stanchini… ma ne è valsa la pena! la città è famosa per le costruzioni tipiche chiamate ‘trulli’. se li avete sempre visti solo in fotografia come me, è una sorta di magia esserne circondati! bianco ovunque, con dei tocchi blu nei bordi delle finestre e brillanti fiori rosa. le persone sono così gentili e disponibili a spiegare qualsiasi cosa sulle costruzioni o sul simbolismo… persino la chiesa è in un trullo! (prima foto). abbiamo comperato bellissimo artigianato locale e posso dire senza dubbio che è una delle nostre città preferite!
