Lecture/Luncheon - Olive Groves, Ancient Stone & Azure Sea: Life in Puglia
Advertisement
Puglia (in English Apulia) is one of the most fascinating regions in southern Italy, famous for its extraordinary variety of landscapes, traditions and flavors.
Often referred as the "heel of the boot", Puglia overlooks the Adriatic and lonian Seas, offering kilometers of coastline with crystal clear waters, spectacular cliffs and golden beaches. But its uniqueness is not only the sea: in the hinterland there are centuries-old olive groves, quiet countryside and white villages rich in history.
Among the most iconic images are the trulli of Alberobello, unique in the world, and baroque cities such as Lecce, nicknamed the "Florence of the South".
Puglia is also synonymous with gastronomic excellence: simple but extraordinary products such as extra virgin olive oil, focaccia from Bari, orecchiette and typical cheeses such as burrata are born here.
