[2025 Alberobello Attraction] Travel Guide for Alberobello - Rione Monti (Updated Mar)

5.9

Alberobello in Puglia, Italy, is known as "a fragment of heaven", and the Monti district is the soul of this world cultural heritage town. The Monti district, which is densely covered with more than a thousand Trulli stone houses, is like an open fairy tale book - snow-white limestone walls, gray conical roofs and stone streets interweave to form a magical architectural wonder of the Mediterranean. Trulli architecture is the crystallization of the wisdom of Puglia farmers, and its unique structure is built by mortar-free dry masonry. Now, these stone houses have become boutique homestays, workshops and wine cellars, and tourists can stay in "cave-style" rooms. The Church of Sant'Antonio in the Monti district is the only Trulli-style church, with a hexagonal dome surrounded by 12 small cones, and the interior murals depict scenes of saints dancing with vines. UNESCO has included this place in the list, calling it "a living example of human adaptation to the environment and society."
