Alberobello, one of the prettiest towns in Italy and unique UNESCO world heritage site in Puglia.
Alberobello is a delightful small town in Puglia, in the South of Italy, with something special: a town center entirely made of trulli, fairy tale looking houses so unique, they made Alberobello UNESCO world heritage sites!
Trulli houses are round in shape, they have whitewashed walls and distinctive pointy roofs shaped like a cone with layered tiles, made in grey local stone.
They are an ancient type of construction and they are still in use nowadays.
Some are museums, some are shops, some are homes and some have now been transformed into welcoming and rather luxurious tourist accommodation!
Alberobello is wonderful and rather magical.
