This expanse of land stretching out to sea offers sublime sandy beaches, such as those of Porto Cesario and Torre dell&#8217;Orso, and unparalleled wilderness, such as at the Gargano and Murges National Parks. The cities, such as Bari, and the many typical villages are also worth a visit. In short, and without further ado, here are our 11 must-see places to visit in Puglia in Southern Italy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bari<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The capital of the region, this dynamic port city boasts 324,000 inhabitants, stunning architectural treasures and a seafront that is second to none.

It is easily and quickly reached from Brindisi by train. You will love losing yourself in the maze of alleys of Ostuni, between the bright white houses. You can discover the splendid cathedral, Santa Maria dell&#8217;Assunzione, and don&#8217;t forget to go for a walk along its 17km of coastline, where you will find endless coves and fine sand beaches. We promise you a walk outside of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"background-color:#efefef\">\ud83d\udca1 <strong><strong>Tip<\/strong>. <\/strong>While in Ostuni, try to attend the famous <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ostuni.eu\/cavalcata-s-oronzo.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-penci-link=\"external\"><strong>Cavalcata di Sant&#8217;Oronzo<\/strong><\/a>, or St. Oronce&#8217;s Ride.

Get out of Ostuni and walk through the bucolic countryside around. The Itria Valley, with its endless fields of olive trees, awaits you. In your wanderings, stop in the Monti and Aia Piccola districts of the municipality of Alberobello, whose trulli, houses made of dry stones with cone-shaped roofs, &nbsp;are classified as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

It is also a less touristy destination, in comparison to the other towns and villages in Puglia. This means it has a more authentic atmosphere, but it is still not lacking in places of interest, including the Angioino Castle, the <strong>Cathedral of Sant&#8217;Agata<\/strong>, built in 1629. This is without mentioning the magnificent coastline of beaches.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" data-attachment-id=\"33953\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/destinations-europe.com\/en\/puglia-11-must-see-places-to-visit-in-the-south-of-italy\/gallipoli-pouilles\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Gallipoli-Pouilles.jpeg?fit=1280%2C720&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1280,720\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Gallipoli-Pouilles\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Gallipoli-Pouilles.jpeg?fit=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Gallipoli-Pouilles.jpeg?resize=1170%2C658&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33953\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Gallipoli-Pouilles.jpeg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Gallipoli-Pouilles.jpeg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Gallipoli-Pouilles.jpeg?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Gallipoli-Pouilles.jpeg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Gallipoli-Pouilles.jpeg?resize=1170%2C658&amp;ssl=1 1170w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Gallipoli-Pouilles.jpeg?resize=585%2C329&amp;ssl=1 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Houses of Alberobello<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We&#8217;ve already talked about the Itria Valley, but we couldn&#8217;t fail to make a specific entry on Alberobello.

There are about 1,500 of these typical houses in the <strong>Monti and Aia Piccola neighborhoods<\/strong>, both of which are classified as World Heritage Sites by UNESCO. Aia Piccola is the place to be if you want to escape the crowds of tourists. Don&#8217;t forget to visit the Museo del Terroir and Chiesa di Sant&#8217;Antonio (Church of St. Anthony), with its trullo style roof.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" data-attachment-id=\"33957\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/destinations-europe.com\/en\/puglia-11-must-see-places-to-visit-in-the-south-of-italy\/alberobello-pouilles\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Alberobello-Pouilles.jpeg?fit=1280%2C720&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1280,720\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Alberobello-Pouilles\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Alberobello-Pouilles.jpeg?fit=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Alberobello-Pouilles.jpeg?resize=1170%2C658&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33957\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Alberobello-Pouilles.jpeg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Alberobello-Pouilles.jpeg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Alberobello-Pouilles.jpeg?resize=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Alberobello-Pouilles.jpeg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Alberobello-Pouilles.jpeg?resize=1170%2C658&amp;ssl=1 1170w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/destinations-europe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Alberobello-Pouilles.jpeg?resize=585%2C329&amp;ssl=1 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Polignano a Mare<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It would be sacrilege to visit Puglia without going to this beautiful place.

Polignano a Mare is also a place of historical interest, such as the <strong>Arco Marchesale<\/strong>, the great gateway to the town centre dating back to the 16th century, or the Chiesa Madre di S.
