Viewing Austria
Impressions from a journey trough the alpine country of Austria in October 2018.
Austria in Fall
When traveling to Austria in October, there is a particular mood setting over the country. The heat of summer is over, and nature is beginning to prepare for a more harsh season. Still, the weather can be lovely with blue skies and a milder, gentler sun. The leaves start to fall, and brown and yellow colors fall over the landscape. Autumn is here, and it is the perfect time for a walk in the hills.
The Trullis of Alberobello
The so-called Trullis are roundhouses famous in certain parts of the Apuglia region in Italy. They are built of stone and allow pleasant temperatures even in the summer heat, similar to caves. They used to be houses for the poor, but since the 20th Century, they have gained popularity, and towns featuring them, like Alberobello, have become magnets for visitors worldwide.
The White City: Alberobello
Deep down in a valley in the region of Apuglia in southern Italy lies Alberobello, a beautiful town distinguished by peculiar architecture and the shining white color of its buildings.
