Neglected land - Every time I get off in Metaponto, I always hope something has changed..... Magna Graecia, a country full of charm and culture. See those little houses, with neglected vegetation, dirty streets, a little jewel kept terrible. What a shame!!! You have gold and you don't realize it!!!
