Near Spinazzola, the Murge Plateau opens into a panorama of extraordinary breadth. The undulating hills, covered with golden wheat fields, extend until they merge with the horizon in an almost infinite vision. The sky, which occupies most of the image, is crossed by clouds that add drama to the scene. A highway viaduct in the distance represents the only obvious sign of modernity in this landscape otherwise unchanged for centuries. Spinazzola, located on the border between Puglia and Basilicata, is the ideal starting point for exploring this portion of Alta Murgia.
