Apulia
Crystal-clear sea, golden beaches and untamed vegetation make Apulia a long, resplendent terrace onto the Mediterranean Sea.
The ancient civilisations left traces of their passage through this
region bordered by two seas, the Adriatic and Ionian, making it become the region with the most prehistoric remains in Italy: the many dolmens and menhirs that are particularly scattered across the Tavoliere and around Bari are concrete testimony of this.
Moving across this vast shelf extending to the east with 800 km of coastline, you can encounter the mysterious caves of the Gargano, the sunshine-filled fields of the immense Tavoliere plain, the
untamed hills of the wild Murgia, and the perfumed olive groves and the vineyards of Salento.
Architectural uniqueness stands out in this varied region of the Valle d'Itria with the famous Trulli (traditional stone buildings with a conical roof) that were built in the 17th century, the magnificent sacred cathedrals at Bitonto and Trani, the precious Baroque
architecture at Lecce and the permanent exhibitions of Magna Graecia finds at the National
Archaeological Museum in Taranto.
