Cuisine and restaurants
Alberobello has hosted many delicious and unusual restaurants, both in the city center and in the city center. on the outskirts (which are considered less popular with tourists, because they are more valuable for the inveterate gourmets).
In the center you can look in the restaurant Casa Nova or La Cantina, which is located between the municipality building and the basilica (Vico Lippolis, 9, at the corner of Corso Vittorio Emanuele). In the last only 7 tables, one waiter, amazing cuisine and main dishes for 20 EUR. Local people prefer to go to Gli Ulivi, which is located in the vicinity of Alberobello, near Campo Sportivo (closed on Wednesdays). In Il Trullo Antico (Monte Pasubio 1-3) you can taste pizza and sit in the Gallo d'Estate on the outdoor terrace
Another one of the hidden gems of the city of trulli is the restaurant Il Trullo d 'Oro (Via Cavallotti 27). You can enjoy wine and enjoy the sunny cuisine of the Apulia region in the trattoria Amatulli (a liter of wine from 4 EUR, dishes from 15 EUR, Via Garibaldi 13). Finally, two more places worthy of lunch: the expensive Il Poeta Contadino with a medieval interior, where you can taste black truffles for 30 EUR (Via Indipendenza 21), and a modern Kave Club in the main square of Piazza del Popolo. They say that the service in the latter is horrible, but the fashion does its dirty work, so in the evenings it can not get through.
Entertainment, excursions and attractions Alberobello
The trulli zone in Alberobello is divided into two parts: the less commercial Rione Aia Piccola there are fewer cafes and shops here) with about 400 trulli, and Rione Monti, where there are about 1000 charming houses. In many of which, by the way, people still live.
It is worth saying a few words about the appearance of these fabulous shelters in the world. The trulli are completely constructed of stone, without the use of any materials for the hitch. The roofs are made in the form of cones (this is what the name of the trulli came from), at the top, like the Christmas trees, are the stars, and the zodiac signs are painted on the roofs themselves. The first trullo was built around the 14th century, and in 1925 a law was issued banning their construction. Although they say that it is possible to buy a trulli house as a dacha, to this day.
In the Alberobello trulli zone you can simply hang about, looking at quaint buildings, running into a cafe and souvenir shops, or you can look into the so-called local attractions . For example, in Trullo Sovrano . This house is located in the modern part of the city, as it was built in the 18th century . And the label of the "monument "He went for two floors - this is the only two-story trullo that was built by a prosperous family of a local priest . Today in Sovrano there is a small museum, the main exposition of which is the Trullo interior itself, giving an idea of how one can live in the" country of the Lilliputians " Alberobello . In d 1, 5 EUR, opening hours: 10-18: 00 . Address: Piazza Sacramento .
The second worthy visit is the Church of St. Anthony (Chiesa Sant'Antonio), which is located where? That's right, in trullo. Located on the top of Rione Monti, this eccentric Trulli church was built on donations from American immigrants. Address: Via Monte San Michele
