Martina Franca
Martina Franca is the most populous Comune in the Valley, known above all for its splendid Baroque architecture and for the Martina Franca Music Festival.
-
Zoo Safari
On the hill overlooking the elegant Borgo of Fasano, you can find Zoo Safari in the midst of a wood. This park that adults and children alike will love offers an incredible panoply of more than 40 animal species living free in their native habitats.
-
Bari Vecchia
Bari Vecchia is a walled city crowded on a peninsula jutting into the sea. There was no room for expansion and the resulting overcrowding has meant that life is lived on the streets. Entire families from grandparents to babies sat outside their homes chatting, playing, napping, while washing dangled from balconies and scooters whizzed past.
-
Alberobello
Undoubtedly the most famous town in Itria Valley, for its trulli-lined streets. Trulli the typical ancient Apulian small round houses of stone with a conical roof.
-
Gallipolli
Gallipolli’s old town is on a island connected by a causeway to the mainland. It has a relaxed, elegant vibe, some stunning churches, and a golden curve of sand right in the centre of town, plus many more along the surrounding coast.
-
Ostuni
The “White City” the only one fronting the sea, is Ostuni, with its characteristic historic center, once painted entirely white (now it is so only in part). Together with Taranto and Santa Maria di Leuca, it creates a tri-city area that is one of the Salento zone’s travel hotspots.
-
Locorotondo
Officially listed as one of the most beautiful towns in Italy, this quiet and tranquil town is also famous for its Locorotondo DOC white wines. Though you won’t see trulli here, Locorotondo has its own unique building structure called the cummerse, with its unusual peaked gable roofs.
