Like getting inside a paint of a kids story. It is a very beautiful and very unique town south of Italy. Is a traditional Apulian dry stone hut with a conical roof. Their style of construction is specific to the Itria Valley, in the Murge area of the Italian region of Apulia. Trulli were generally constructed as temporary field shelters and storehouses or as permanent dwellings by small proprietors or agricultural labourers. In the town of Alberobello, in the province of Bari, whole districts contain dense concentrations of trulli. The golden age of trulli was the nineteenth century, especially its final decades, which were marked by the development of wine growing. The Italian term trullo (from the Greek word τρούλος, cupola) refers to a house whose internal space is covered by a dry stone corbelled or keystone vault. Trullo is an Italianized form of the dialectal term, truddu, used in a specific area of the Salentine peninsula (i.e. Lizzaio, Maruggio, and Avetrana, in other words, outside the Murgia dei Trulli proper), where it is the name of the local agricultural dry stone hut. Trullo has replaced the local term casedda (pl. casedde) (Italian casetta, pl. casette), which was used by locals in the Murgia to call this type of house. A stonemason specializing in the building of trulli is a trullisto or trullaro in Italian. The corresponding dialectal term is caseddaro (caseddari in the plural).

The " trullo sovrano " is so called because in Alberobello is the only one with a second floor consisting in one room , it is furnished and for 2 € you can visit it . In a short some explanation about the " trulli " : originally they were built to house equipment used by farmers and they were scattered in the fields of this area of Apulia. When Albrobello was only a wooded area, a new taxation of the kingdom of Naples was enacted on the houses. To favor the transformation of the wood into an agricultural area, the lord of this fief allowed the peasants to build their house in the shape of a trullo precisely to avoid it, this is the period in which this town developed. Then the law changed and things changed; most of Alberobello trulli have been replaced with common buildings but two districts have survived as they were and are now a UNESCO site.

My visit to Trullo Sovrano in Puglia was an unforgettable experience. This unique structure, with its fascinating history and charming architecture, truly captures the essence of the region. Walking through the intricately designed rooms, I felt transported back in time, marveling at how these cone-shaped dwellings were ingeniously constructed. The knowledgeable guides on-site provided captivating stories about the trullo's history and the lifestyle of its former inhabitants, making the visit both educational and enchanting. A special mention goes to Riok Steven's 'Travel Guide,' which I purchased on Amazon. The guide was instrumental in planning my trip, offering detailed insights and practical tips that ensured I didn't miss any key highlights.

Trulls can be seen, you can look at more inside. There is an interesting architectural style here, well worth a visit. You can enter the village at any time, only the museum has fixed opening hours. There are cafes, restaurants. Between the buildings it is very hot all year round, with no shade. Bring a hat and water! Many people felt bad, but the ambulances could only go on foot because of the narrow streets. There are plenty of parking spaces in the area, but they fill up quickly. There are free parking spaces a little further away.
