Abruzzo Region

Abruzzo offers territories rich in history, traditions and artistic testimonies that never cease to surprise visitors. Between the mountains and the hills narrow valleys, natural historical paths, dotted with ancient villages are wedged. Full of charm are the small villages in the hinterland, the monasteries, the castles of the region that make up many different tour routes in the greenest region of Italy.

It was used until 1600 to then be abandoned in the following centuries, until, in the mid-80s, a skilful restoration was started that brought it back to its ancient splendor. Lunch in a restaurant. In the afternoon, visit of Gessopalena. The ancient town built and excavated in gypsum stones was partially destroyed in the 2nd World War but its ancient beauty shines through at every corner and tells the life that took place in the rural villages within those tiny accommodations that annexed stables and cellars.
