Tourism of the passions in Basilicata, from herbs to the stars - Art and scenery in ancient hamlets, workshops, guided tours |
|
Potenza, 6 March, 2024 (APA/OTS) - From astronomy to art and scenery in ancient hamlets, from workshops to guided tours in parks and gardens among wild herbs and flowers, fairy tales and magic: Basilicata opens up to experiential tourism, allowing visitors to live out and share their passions. |
Off the usual tourist trail, the region offers visitors many
original opportunities to rediscover places of true anthropological
beauty, culture and tradition and recharge by immersing themselves
in nature, rediscovering the charm of traditions, sampling typical
dishes and practising outdoor sports.
Lucania, with its incredible biodiversity protected by two national
parks, three regional parks and several nature reserves, is the
ideal place to discover wild herbs, flowers and medicinal plants
during an excursion with experts in alimurgy, the science that
studies the use of edible wild plants, better known today as
'foraging'.
To find out more, visit the Conservatory of Ethnobotany and Hortus
Basiliano in Castelluccio Superiore, a garden containing about 150
mostly native medicinal plants; the Park of Colours in Castelgrande
(Potenza) dedicated to the famous botanist Guglielmo Gasparrini and
also boasting a 'Butterfly House' containing live butterflies in a
tropical micro habitat. The Sanseverino Botanical Garden in Grumento
Nova and the Herb House in Pomarico for learning about and
recognising spontaneous herbs are also not to be missed.
With its very low light pollution, Basilicata is also the ideal
place for admiring the night sky in the countryside and mountains or
around small hilltop villages. Visitors can feel in direct contact
with the universe in several ways: at the Anzi Astronomical
Observatory, one of the most respected in Italy for its scientific
and astronomical activity, where it is possible to admire around 4.
500 sparkling stars; the Museum of Science and Space-Sparkme Space
Academy in Matera, a site dedicated to the spread of scientific
knowledge offering immersive visits in the world of science and
space; and the Castelgrande Space Debris Observatory, with two domes
and two telescopes at an altitude of 1,258 metres.
Another original and exciting way to discover the territory is
through fairy tale and magic. Here, the journey starts in Rapone,
the so-called 'village of fairy tales', and with a book, 'Lo Cunto
de Li Cunti', written in 1600 by the Neapolitan Giambattista Basile
who, inspired by the Lucania region, gathered and translated
numerous folk tales. Rapone Fairytale Festival is a community
project giving new life to the most beautiful fairy tales of all
time through an artistic-cultural route. There is also the five
fairy tales trail, the multimedia museum 'C.E.R.A. una volta' and an
adventure park with trails devoted to fairy tale characters.
The tour continues towards Albano di Lucania, the 'town of Magic'
that was already the object of research during Ernesto De Martino's
expeditions to Lucania in the 1950s, with the 'La Rocca del
Cappello' ritual route, and passes through Colobraro with its
enthralling 'Sogno di una notte a quel paese' initiative, to reach
Agromonte, the town of riddles, among the peaks of the Pollino
National Park, declared a Unesco natural heritage site in 2015. Here
it is possible to admire the loricate pine, described by many as the
'living fossil' or the 'dinosaur of trees', the undisputed
protagonist of this magical and extraordinary scenario.
Then there are the workshops combining outdoor activities and the
discovery of new places, ancient traditions and tasty local dishes:
in Lavello, the 'Bloom essence of nature', to coincide with the
blossoming of the numerous lavender fields; in Grottole, to learn
the art of the master cheesemaker and make your own cheese; and also
ceramics and papier-mâché workshops and camera trapping courses with
Ceas staff in the Pollino National Park.
Visitors can also ride donkeys with farmers on the ancient sheep
trails or immerse themselves in forests with guides certified by the
Forest Therapy Institute in order to reap the psychological and
physiological benefits of trees.
