A Visit to the Edge of the World!

A Visit to the Edge of the World!

What a wonderful idea is to set off on an interesting tour to the most peaceful and scenic areas in Italy…. Puglia. It is an area blessed with grotesque natural diversity as it is overlooks the Mediterranean Sea. It has golden beaches stretching along the Southern coastline.

As Romans used to call it “the edge of the world”, it is a significant tourist destination notable for its peacefulness and warmth all over the year. It is the best and ideal hub for those seeking recreation, peace of mind and warmth. Every year, there are about 300 days of sunrise. It is a favourite destination for Italians and foreign tourists heading from everywhere in the world. They wish to avoid the intolerable crowdedness and traffic congestion, especially in Rome. Puglia features one of the world’s most significant tourist attractions; that is “Saint Nicholas Church” built in the 12th century. In the city of Albert W, houses are designed according to the traditional “Tdollo” style. Therefore, they are included in the UNESCO World Heritage list. Many of those houses have been transformed into hotels. However, some other houses give cooking lessons, such as “Messier Yamarz Alousa” house owned by the family of Areni for five generations.

Still, tourist turnout is increasing in this area due to cost-efficient tours, or the so-called “economic airlines”, including “Easy Jet” and “Rainy Air” traveling daily from London to Bari Airport. Tourists can get tickets at any time all over the year. The value of a return ticket does not usually exceed £20 ($40).

In addition, tourists can have the opportunity to enjoy Italian food in “Puglia“, such as orecchetti pasta served with sauce or vegetable salad. There is also the local mozzarella, the best in Italy. Puglia’s cuisine reflects the simplicity of countryside and features delicious dishes that are preferred by many to those served in Rome restaurants.

Puglia features also interesting folkloric arts that highlight its distinctive and innovative nature that is different from the rest of Italian cities as regards its cuisine, artistic and musical events.

As a final stop, tourists can shop at the age-old public markets and buy attractive craftworks made by people of south Italy. They can also buy souvenirs and gifts for their friends that may be motivated to visit “Puglia“, too.
