THE PEARL OF THE ITRIA VALLEY

Distance: 77 km – Perched on a hilltop in southeastern Murgia, Martina Franca looks over the gorgeous Itria Valley. In addition to a rich landscape studded with typical trulli and masserie farmhouses, Martina Franca sprawls an exquisite vast karst territory. The historic centre’s Palazzo Ducale is home to the Festival della Valle d’Itria, a summer event that draws international artists and visitors. San Martino Cathedral and the Madonna del Carmine church are also worth visiting.

ONE OF THE “MOST BEAUTIFUL VILLAGES IN ITALY”

Distance: 77 km – Located in the Itria Valley, the splendid Locorotondo is regularly named one of Italy’s “Most Beautiful Villages”. Of particular note is the historic centre, an intimate, graceful ensemble of cummerse houses with distinct pointed roofs. Visit Palazzo Comunale, the former town hall that’s home to the municipality seat and the University.

THE TRADITIONAL WHITE HOUSES AND COLOURFUL GERANIUMS

Distance: 95 km – Cisternino rises from a limestone step of the undulating Southeastern Murgia, lapped by the breezes from the nearby Adriatic and surrounded by the lush countryside. The town’s typical white lime houses line alleys dotted with geraniums, arches, small loggias, stone friezes, and stairways that characterise the breathtaking historic centre. Ostuni, nicknamed the “White City”, lies further south. The millennia old Colonno Terminale, the column that marked the end of Via Appia, presides over the town. Sites include the Aragonese and Swabian castles, the Romanesque Church of Christ, the Church of Santa Maria del Casale, the Tancredi fountain, and the circular temple of San Giovanni al Sepolcro. The Southern Murge Museum’s Pre-Classical Civilizations exhibit features the cast of Delia, a prehistoric pregnant woman from over 25,000 years ago unearthed in 1991.

PUGLIA’S BAROQUE CAPITAL

Distance 100 km – Lecce lies in the heart of Salento between the Adriatic and Ionian Seas. It’s known for its Baroque splendour, evident in churches, palaces, and architectural details, which earned the city its nickname: “Florence of the South”. The rich, crumbly Lecce stone gives life to fine details, such as those that adorn the Basilica of Santa Croce and the Seminary building, or the magnificent Piazza del Duomo with the Cathedral of Maria Santissima Assunta. Touched by the Adriatic and Ionian Seas, Salento is lined with a jagged, rocky coast on one side and gentle, sandy expanses on the other, which meet in Santa Maria di Leuca. Southern Puglia is characterised by the beauty of the sea and the varied coastal scenery, from the most built up to the wildest. Like few others, it’s a place that has been able to maintain and hand down its history and cultural identity. From the rural landscapes to the marinas of Melendugno, Santa Cesarea Terme, Otranto, Porto Cesareo, Porto Selvaggio, and Gallipoli, the area’s panoramas are enriched by dry stone walls, olive trees, and ancient dolmens (farmhouses-turned-accommodations). The historic centres are characterised by the magnificent Lecce Baroque, with buildings of the typical pinkish-yellow colour. Events bring the streets to life every year, such as the Notte della Taranta, which celebrates the musical tradition, blending ancient Salento Pizzica rhythms with modern influences.

WILDLIFE AND AMUSEMENT PARKS

Distance 15 km – The Fasano Zoosafari and Fasanolandia amusement park are a splendid excursion. Italy’s largest wildlife park is home to animal species from five continents that roam freely within the park. Observe, film, and photograph them in their habitat from your car as you drive through. You’ll find rides, shows, a disco, a theatre, and restaurants in the amusement park.

THE WHITE CITY

Distance: 27 km – Ostuni, nicknamed the “White City”, is a splendid town presided over by the millennia-old Colonno Terminale, the column that marked the end of Via Appia. Other sites include the Aragonese and Swabian castles, the Romanesque Church of Christ, the Church of Santa Maria del Casale, the Tancredi fountain, and the circular temple of San Giovanni al Sepolcro. The Southern Murge Museum’s Pre-Classical Civilizations exhibit features the cast of Delia, a prehistoric pregnant woman from over 25,000 years ago unearthed in 1991. You can also admire the Ostuni Marina coastline with the ports of Fasano and Carovigno. Nicknamed the Riviera dei Trulli, the coastline is popular among tourists for its sandy beaches, Mediterranean scrub, inlets, and low cliffs.

THE TOWN OF MODUGNO

Distance 31 km – The birthplace of Domenico Modugno, the quasi-triangular Polignano a Mare spans 63 square km and overlooks the Adriatic Sea. Believed to have once been the ancient Greek city of Neapolis, Polignano a Mare lies just over 30 km southeast of Bari, where the Arabs, Byzantines, Spaniards, and Normans have left indelible traces of their presence. Sites of note include the Norman Abbey of San Vito, the Roman Via Traiana connecting Rome to Brindisi, and the historic feudal period palaces of the Governor, the Feudal Lord, and “the clock” (the former town hall).

STRIKING LIMESTONE CAVES

Distance 40 km – Discovered by speleologist Franco Anelli in 1938, the Castellana karst caves are a rare gem. The tourist route stretches for about 3 kilometres among evocatively named places, such as the Black Cave, Angel Corridor, Cave of the Crib, Precipice Cave, Crystal Pond, and White Cave.

FROM THE CHURCHES OF PUTIGNANO TO THE TRULLI OF ALBEROBELLO 

Distance 55 km – Putignano is famous for its carnival and the workshops of the carpenters who make the parade “floats”. Visit Marchione Castle, the mother church of San Pietro and the 16th-century church of San Michele. Alberobello is 15 kilometres from Putignano on the Provincial Road, a town famous for its extraordinary, unique structures: the trulli, an exquisite UNESCO World Heritage Site.

THE GEM OF SALENTO

Distance 131 km – One of the best-known localities of Salento, the town of Gallipoli is perched on a small island connected to the mainland by a long bridge. Once made of stone, the bridge represents an interesting and beautiful cultural and artistic heritage. In the ancient village, a maze of narrow streets and alleys, you’ll see civil and religious art and spectacular architecture. First and foremost, the beautiful mediaeval and Renaissance churches were later embellished with a Baroque flair that’s still evident today in the painted majolica adorning both the facades and floors, altars, wooden and paper-mâché statues, and several paintings, some of immense value.
