Carefullied lay down like a musa on the slopes of a mount, Alia preserves history, legends, treasures and traditions, while attending silent to be admired and told.
An extraordinary natural atmosphere and gorgeus landscapes make to contraltare to the polite, pretty, and friendly city where, beside churches, baronial palaces, alleys, evocative arch and modern infrastructures, the memories of the local rural civilization are still alive, being collected in the Etno Anthropological Museum.
The natural cove of the Old Cemetery with the enclosed Anthropological Museum and those monumental ones of the Gurfa, spectacular example of mountain architecture, would be enough to make of this place a Heaven portion.
Beyond to the culture, another prerogative of this place is the common feeling of solidarity. Poeple maintained alive along the centuries the cult for our Lady of All Thanks, whose feast indicates the desire of turn back to the own origins, spreading a message of love and fraternity that ideally joins all the people from Alia, in any part of the world they live.
