Puglia - the trendiest destination in Italy
Apulia, located in southern Italy at the distinctive "heel of the Italian boot," is one of the most popular destinations this season. The region delights with its turquoise sea, whitewashed towns, beautiful beaches, and excellent cuisine.
The best place to start your trip is in Bari, where you can visit the atmospheric old town of Bari Vecchia and sample the local focaccia. Also nearby are Polignano a Mare, famous for its picturesque cliffs and Lama Monachile beach, and Monopoli with its charming port.
One of the symbols of Puglia is Alberobello, known for its characteristic stone trulli houses. The white city of Ostuni and the baroque town of Lecce are also worth visiting. Beach lovers should head to the Salento Peninsula, home to popular resorts and bays with crystal-clear waters.
Puglia is also renowned for its local cuisine. Popular delicacies include orecchiette, burrata, focaccia barese, panzerotti, and sweet pasticciotto.
The region can be explored by train, but for longer trips and visiting smaller towns, a car is more convenient. It's worth allocating about five to seven days for your first trip.
Puglia is an ideal choice for those who want to combine sightseeing, a seaside holiday, and a true Italian experience.
