Basilicata, [a] also known by its ancient name Lucania, [b] is an administrative region in Southern Italy, bordering on Campania to the west, Apulia to the north and east, and Calabria to the south.
Basilicata offers a rich, varied landscape, but nowhere has the iconic significance of the region’s badlands. While it’s not always easy traveling in this part of the region, it’s always an unforgettable experience.
