• Amazing Alberbello, Italy

    October 13, 2024 in Italy ⋅ 🌙 17 °C

    Today we revisited Alberobello. This town was one that captivated us when we were here in 2018 and we were curious to see if it had changed much. When we first visited it wasn’t as well known as it is today and today it was packed with people and full of “tacky” tourist shops. While it has lost some of its simple charm the trulli still intrigue me.

    Alberobello was first settled in the 16th century and today is known as one of Italy’s most beautiful towns. The trulli of Alberobello have been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996.

    We enjoyed walking among the trulli, and of course taking many photos of these unique buildings as it is still such a picturesque town. We managed to find a little bar in a side lane to have a spritz and snacks before enjoying one of the best gelatos from this trip.

    I am glad we decided to revisit Alberobello so see the changes but we can tick that off our list now. And the snack of the day was a packet of cheese ring chips and limoncello spritz while waiting for the bus home. So Italian.
