Potenza — Centro Storico & Belvedere
Basilicata
At over 800 m, Potenza is the highest of Italy's regional capitals, its historic centre strung along a narrow ridge with views opening out over the wooded Lucanian Apennines on both sides. The old-town streets are steep in places but compact, easy to cover on a single walk.
