Matera's lanscape in the sunset is incredibly amazing.
When the sun goes down and the lights and street lamps across the Sassi are on, the scenery is enchanting.
During the late spring and summer period it is possible to enjoy a good dinner at open air in one of the numerous typical small restaurants and pizzerie in the city centre and in the Sassi. The night life in Matera is mainly concentrated in the old town centre, along via Ridola, via del Corso, via delle Beccherie and via S. Biagio. Streets and lanes are full of bars, pubs, bistros etc. where it is possible to have a nice drink while enjoing a live music performance. Moreover, the city centre very often hosts music concerts, street artists, buskers, street markets and even fashion shows.
