Later you will reach the “Sasso Caveoso”, along “Vico Solitario”, in front of the complex of “Santa Lucia alle Malve” that frames the scenes of the market of Jerusalem, whose door is that of “Piazza Porta Pistoia”. After a brief stop, you will continue our itinerary to “The Masseria Radogna”, typical rural construction, served as the setting for the flashbacks of Jesus’ childhood. Here the famous scene was shot, in which the Madonna, intent on cooking, helps the little Jesus who comes out of the house and stumbles. Then you will move to “Belvedere di Murgia Timone”, the beautiful natural scenery that served as a backdrop to the Golgotha scene and the Monte speech. At the end, you will visit “Craco”, ghost town of the province of Matera, which has provided the perfect scenario for the suicide of Judas, repenting of betrayal.
