A soulful experience of countryside and coast
Puglia is the heel of Italy’s boot, the region in the southeast corner of Italy where picturesque landscapes, unique white-painted towns, ancient history, and excellent local cuisine await. Although not well-known, Puglia offers some of the most classic Italy travel experiences, as well as the longest stretch of coastline of any Italian region. A vacation in Puglia is your chance to relax and soak up la dolce vita, southern-Italian-style.
So what kinds of destinations await you on a trip to Puglia? The iconic (and conic—as in cone-shaped) roofs of Alberobello and its white buildings, the Baroque buildings of Lecce, the unforgettable pebble beaches of Polignano a Mare, the ladies outside of their homes rolling orecchiette pasta in Bari Vecchia and so much more. During your vacation in Puglia, you’ll savor the region’s durum wheat loaves of bread, crispy dough rings called taralli, salty caciocavallo cheese, and a number of sinfully good pastries like pasticciotto, focaccias, and pastas.
Puglia Travel Inspiration
From the scenic coastline to the rolling hills, Puglia is marked by multicultural influences that make the region tantalizing to all your senses as you explore art, architecture, and cuisine. Food enthusiasts will be thrilled to have landed in Puglia after tasting the cucina povera, a simple yet delicious local cuisine.
Puglia’s climate is ideal for the production of some of the finest ingredients used in Italian cooking. Tomatoes and grapes are sun-ripened to perfection, while groves of olive trees—an astounding 60 million of them—are the source of the region’s beloved olive oil. Travel to Puglia to savor the highly sought-after Pugliese wine, knowing that the technique behind the wine’s production was handed down from the Phoenicians.
Puglia is where the ancient meets the modern in a swirl of multi-cultural influence that is breathtaking to behold and luxurious to immerse in.
