Visit Puglia

The Puglia region (also known as Apulia) is the 'heel' of Italy - that is, the south-eastern part of the country, facing the Adriatic Sea to the east and the Ionian Sea to the south.

The towns of Trani, Ruvo di Puglia and especially the important town of Bari are worth visiting, as is the castle inland at Castel del Monte.

Continue south into the 'heel' of Italy to discover the fascinating local architectural style of Alberobello, and the towns of Galatina and Otranto. Hill-towns to explore include beautiful Ostini. The main city is at Lecce, where there are lots of impressive 16th century buildings. There are some picturesque and interesting historical aspects to admire in Taranto, ancient city of the region to the south.

The coastal resort at Barletta is also an important historical centre.
