Apulia

Apulia Italy Apulia is mostly a plain (see Tavoliere delle Puglie); its low coast, however, is broken by the mountainous Gargano Peninsula in the north, and there are mountains in the north central part of the region. Other important centers are Alberobello, Andria, Barletta, Canosa, Conversano, Francavilla Fontana, Gallipoli, Gioia del Colle, Gravina in Puglia, Grottaglie, Manfredonia, Martina Franca, Molfetta, Monopoli, Ostuni, Otranto, Palo del Colle, Santa Maria di Leuca, San Giovanni Rotondo, San Vito dei Normanni, Trani.

Puglia is a truly fascinating region in every sense, in its nature, history, traditions, taste and spirituality, worth visiting all year round. Those looking for a holiday providing a blazing hot sun and uncontaminated beaches are faced with an embarrassment of riches in Puglia, as they can opt for the 'Pearls of the Gargano', in Vieste and Peschici; the 'Gem of Salento', in Gallipoli, Santa Maria di Leuca, where the Ionian and Adriatic Seas come together; Otranto, or the Tremiti Islands.
For a full immersion in tradition, on the other hand, Alberobello is a must stop, the home of the trulli (ancient stone dwellings with characteristic conical roofs, rigorously built by hand and without the aid of cement).
For the more devote, an inevitable stop is at San Giovanni Rotondo (Foggia), for a visit to the locality of San Pio da Pietrelcina: with the convent of the Capuchin friars of Santa Maria delle Grazie and the new church designed by Renzo Piano.
