Experience

You take delight not in a city’s seven or seventy wonders, but in the answer it gives to a question of yours.
Italo Calvino

Laterza can give you many of such answers and make you curious enough to let you raise new questions. One question could be, for example, “How is a majolica plate made?”, “What were majolica most recurring motifs?” or also “How do you prepare that crunchy bread or those tasty mozzarelle?”. So, what about making a jump back in time, when the Marquises still governed the town, by dancing a typical seventeenth-century dance, dressed up in a typical old-fashioned costume? And what about learning how to use a potter’s wheel like a master potter? Why not admire the scenery from the point of view of a lesser kestrel or of a stork, by literally flying over the town, or ride a donkey along tracks surrounded by nature? This and much more can be experienced in Laterza, thanks to tour operators who can offer you different types of package holiday, making your stay more interesting and close to the spirit of the place. You will have the chance to feel like a real Laertino, or simply find your sense of adventure, away from the daily routine. The magic of life in Laterza, at a slow pace and at one with nature, will have room in your heart for ever.
