APULIA

Apulia is known as a land of extraordinary colours and wonderful variety; an undulating plateau of rich, red earth, with dark green pine-forested hillsides and light green olive groves. Rows of vineyards, blindingly white labyrinths of historic town centres that glisten in the sun. Milky white medieval centres with their tangled, cobble streets and alleyways. Baroque churches of grey and natural hews. Villa walls dusted in pink, all against a backdrop of deep, navy blue Mediterranean Sea and sky-blue sky. Apulia - or Puglia - is a region in southeastern bordering the Adriatic Sea in the east, the Ionian Sea to the southeast, and the Strait of Otranto and Gulf of in the south. Apulia is divided into six provinces: Bari, Barletta- Andria, Brindisi, Foggia, Lecce and Taranto. Its southern portion known as Salento, a peninsula, forms a high heel on the "boot" of Italy. The Greeks colonised one of the richest in Italy for archaeological findings, Apulia in the 8th century BC, but when they got there the Japigi already occupied Apulia. The two tribes of Japigi people, Dauni and Messapi may have been the originators of the traditional Apulian dwelling known as Trulli. Today Apulia is becoming increasingly popular as travellers discover the area's varied charms: baroque towns, whitewashed trullo houses, olive groves and orchards, blue sea and beaches, plenty of sunshine and excellent cuisine. Apulia consists of rolling plains and gentle uplands, sources of grain and the nation's largest volumes of wine and olive oil. SALENTO

The Salento, overlooking the Ionian and Adriatic seas, is in the heart of the Mediterranean, this area is included in an imaginary triangle that goes from the province of Taranto, to Ostuni and down to the tip of the region to Santa Maria di Leuca. In this Micro region you can find golden sands and crystal clear water attracting tourist from all over the world, Thanks to the warm temperature during all the year, Salento is an ideal destination not only in the summer mounts. The territory of this region is plain and intensively cultivated, it’s divided into small plots of land by characteristic dry stone walls built by the typical limestone of the place (pietra leccese), rows of ancient olive trees, between ancient fortified “Masserie” and small white villages that’s our land. Salento however, is not only sea and beautiful rural landscapes. Who comes here it’s often involved in one of the hundred villages party, where it’s visible a very distinctive folklore from the rest of Puglia such as the famous sword dance, a ritual that is repeated unchanged for centuries. In Salento there’s a substantial differences with the rest of Puglia also regarding the architecture, here is visible in the Baroque palaces built between the '500 and '700. The pace of life is slow, the food is delicious, and the people are kind and gentle.
