AI overview
Craco is an abandoned Italian town in the Basilicata region that was emptied after a devastating 1980 earthquake and has since become a popular tourist destination and movie filming location. The town was recognized internationally in 2010 when the World Monuments Fund added it to their watch list of at-risk cultural sites.
