Continue to Alberobello and join your Local Guide for a walking tour through the charming streets to see the world-famous trulli (traditional conical-roof houses) and discover how people live there.
The iconic roundhouses (trulli) date back hundreds of years. These trulli, constructed of dry stone and cone-shaped roofs, include some of the oldest structures built in the 16th century and were used as grain storage or residences. Made without cement in the masonry techniques of the day, these whitewashed homes were easily disassembled to avoid property taxes when the collectors came calling.
Today, you can stroll the streets lined with trulli houses to see their conical rooftops decorated with symbols such as a cross, heart, astronomical symbol, or the evil eye.
