Alberobello

The biggest attraction in the province of Puglia in the southeast of Italy are the trulli. A trullo is a white house with a cone-shaped roof. They were built in rural areas for poor people and were relatively cheap to build without cement. It did not get humid as quickly inside and the rooms remained relatively cool in the summer and warm in the winter. The cone-shaped roofs are sometimes decorated with symbolic, religious or downright mysterious symbols – said to keep evil at bay. The 'capital' of the trulli is Alberobello, where the old center consists of winding streets lined with more than a thousand traditional round white houses. We found it enchanting to see, we flew with our drone over the neighborhoods with all the trulli.
