Puglia —
Set on Italy’s geographical ‘heel’, Puglia is a region that exudes authentic charm. Largely undiscovered by tourism, travellers venture here for its 400 km of secluded coastline, hilltop towns, and picturesque landscapes. Here, you won’t find the bustling city streets of Rome or Milan, but rather a slow and relaxed lifestyle, sea views, and the best of the country’s cuisine.
In the southern portion of Puglia, you’ll find Salento, a lovely region characterised by its stunning coastal towns and sandy beaches. Lecce is the region’s main city, where you can admire ornate Baroque architecture - or, take a trip to the coastal town of Gallipoli to visit its unique old town, built on an island.
To see some of the region’s unique traditions, visit Alberobello, known for its trulli, whitewashed huts with conical roofs. At the end of the day, visit an authentic Puglian restaurant to try the region’s best delicacies, including orecchiette pasta, shaped like little ears, and Puccia, a sandwich made with pizza dough.
