Guida Tipicamente Puglia English Version

Guida Tipicamente Puglia English Version

Puglia is a beautiful region full of charm and mystery. It is a land to be discovered but also to be “savoured” and “tasted” for its extraordinary and food products that the whole world envies us. All of this is described and shown in the Guidebook ‘Tipicamente Puglia’, a journey through Apulian knowledge and flavours by which the Regional Office for Tourism wants to provide tourists with useful information to guide them in selecting the natural, environmental, landscape, architectural, archaeological and cultural attractions to visit and the foods to taste. The ten itineraries suggested in the section ‘Puglia dei sapori’ go through selected farmhouses, masserias, farms, trattorias and introduce the products used for the unique to readers and tourists. ‘Tipicamente Puglia’ is a way to invite people to ‘travel to Puglia’ in a ‘sustainable way’, by walking the routes of the region’s outstanding landmarks: parks, natural reserves, cultural and religious itineraries will draw the tourist’s curiosity while promoting and enhancing places and territories. Every stop of the tour, from Gargano to , from the countryside to the sea, from the hinterland to the cities is characterized by a typical local dish or produce that will help get in touch with the nature, environment, history, traditions. The tour will also pass through villages on the sea, the medieval villages of Murgia, cornfields, centuries-old trees, trullis and masserias. Have a nice trip and come enjoy our products! Magda Terrevoli Councillor For Tourism and Hotel Industry Regione Puglia TipicamentePuglia Itineraries through the heritage, traditions and flavours of the Region

Traveling around Puglia in a sustainable and responsible way as a "traveler" rather than a hasty tourist. "Sustainable traveling" means living the journey as a discovery: visiting a place on tiptoe, taking a delicate step induced by curiosity and desire to know something about the culture, nature, traditions of the place through the contact with the local community. "Going slow" allows covering unusual paths, stopping off and listening to the stories of those who have always lived there; taking refreshment in a countryside inn tasting a delicacy of the place made with simple ingredients, a precious taste of the cultivated land. Making sustainable tourism in Puglia means going along roads that lead to the discovery of small rural villages away from the usual tourist routes, surprising the travelers with authentic small restaurants, the so-called trattoria, where culture is expressed just through the simple use of local products. Such products make Puglia a land of flavors and tastes that tells stories and legends of ancient peoples as the Greeks, the , whose

tipicamente puglia tipicamente echoes can still be heard among the canyons of the High Murgia. The project "Tipicamente Puglia" combines "traveling in Puglia" and "sustainable tourism" in a binomial through routes that intertwine the excellence of the territory with the traditional local products. How? Through the travel offers that make tourism unseasonal, through the development of not well known areas as the Daunian Subappennine, whetting the traveler’s appetite with the typical products of Puglia's tradition, but above all making the local community the protagonist of this new model of tourism development in Puglia. Let’s sit at the table and enjoy Puglia along 10 routes!

O ur region is rich in rural structures where spaces and moments witnessing an ancient country culture can still be found; a culture that has greatly shaped Puglia and made it unique. The rich rural architecture (masseria, jazzi, trulli, hypogeum oil mills …), made up of crop traditions (meaning not only crop techniques but also the tools of the country life) and of the high-quality products, is sometimes combined with the ability of disseminating knowledge and involving people. These are the Agromuseums* of Tipicamente Puglia: living places though stuck in time, in which the traveller will have the opportunity to see how oil is produced, to visit a small museum and to discover the peasants’ shrewdness in manufacturing their ancient tools, to taste and to know the typical gastronomy products as well as to attend a laboratory of white art… many are the opportunities offered to the traveller by the Agromuseum.

* The Agromuseums mentioned in the Guide are farm businesses equipped to receive tourists and disseminate knowledge and provided with experienced personnel and spaces suitable for experiencing the place. They also meet the “Quality Card” requirements. WHAT AN AGROMUSEUM IS AN AGROMUSEUM WHAT
