Pisticci

Pisticci stands on clay hills between the Basento and Cavone river valleys in Basilicata, Italy, where inland ridges descend toward the Ionian plain. Its historic centre is known for the Dirupo quarter, whose compact rows of whitewashed houses follow the slope and give the town a distinctive silhouette. Pisticci is also the birthplace of Amaro Lucano, the herbal liqueur created by Pasquale Vena in 1894 and still closely associated with the town. Beyond its lanes, the surrounding terrain reveals the erosion-shaped calanchi typical of this part of Basilicata, while the municipality extends towards the coast.
