Tursi — La Rabatana
Basilicata
Founded as an Arab garrison, Tursi's Rabatana quarter sits apart from the rest of town on its own spur, its tightly packed stone houses looking out over the eroded clay badlands of the Agri valley. The lanes here are narrow, stepped and much quieter than the modern centre below.
