Witch village

Witch Village - Kolkata Not far from Rome, the town of Calcata in Viterbo province has long been known as the "witch village" (it is said that whether day or night, whenever there is a strong wind here, the song of witches will be heard). The whole village is built on steep tuff around it, lonely and beautiful, and is regarded as one of the 15 most famous mountain top ancient towns in the world today. Nearby is the famous Monte Gelato waterfall. However, it has not been developed into a popular tourist attraction, so there are not many tourists. But it is a paradise for artists. In the 1930s, this place was considered too fragile for habitation due to the cliffs, so residents were relocated to New Kalimpong, leaving behind an empty city. Later, hippies and artists discovered this place and began to settle down one after another, and the town was revitalized. Therefore, it has earned the reputation as the "artist village".
