The historical town of Alberobello

In the summer, Alberobello hosts a number of traditional cultural festivals such as folk music and dance. In the center of the historical town is the Basilica, Trullo Sovrano, and the trullo church of St. Antony.
The UNESCO trulli
Trulli was first constructed in the 16th century to evade land tax. The agricultural farmers first invented it as a temporary shelter to avoid land tax and made it easy to dismantle and build it again.
