The tour meets at 10 am in Piazza Vittorio Veneto, starting the walking tour of the main points in Matera, the 2019's European Capital of Culture. The first stop is the Piazza dei Sedile, home to a palace that symbolizes the cultural life of Matera. Next, the tour proceeds to Via Duomo, where guests will see two ancient entries: Porta di Juso and Porta di Suso.
