Architecture

When catching the sight of any of the region villages, the visitor will get dazzled by the whiteness of the houses, in clear contrast with the clay shades of the roofs, or even by the outlooked monumentality.

Architecture, from the most humble to the most noble, shows the influences of civilizations that settled here, and also the fitness to the climate: narrow streets, white painted houses, few and small windows, arches, castle walls, castles, aqueducts, manor houses and churches.
