Alberobello is a fascinating place to visit, above all because of the trulli, the traditional dome shaped buildings made from the local stone. Trulli is a word that derives from the Greek "tholos" (trans: "dome"), the typical shape of the buildings. Each whitewashed “trullo” is built without lime or cement, and has a conical roof on the outside, which is dome shaped inside, and consists of a square central compartment that communicates through arcades with the kitchen and other rooms.

I Trulli di Alberobello - World Heritage Site
Alberobello, in the region of Puglia in Southern Italy, is a strange and picturesque destination, which is becoming an important fixture on the travel itineraries of tour operators, as well as independent travellers. The small town has been included in the UNESCO World Heritage site for its unusual districts of trulli, the characteristic white-washed conical-roofed houses of the area. Looking like igloos, constructed out of pure stone, the beehive-shape structures, have origins that dates back to the 15th century and maybe older. The trulli, found nowhere else in the world, are built of local limestone, without any form of plastering, and with a cavity on the top and painted with mystical or religious symbols.
