The city's offerings are truly rich: ancient churches, romantic glimpses of the sea, historic palaces, relaxing walks along the waterfront and, finally, local gastronomic treasures such as orecchiette, focaccia or panzerotti. The discovery of the city certainly begins in the area of “Bari Vecchia,” or the oldest core where most of the city's sites of interest are located. Visiting its historic center is a bit like stepping back in time. Walking through the alleys of Bari Vecchia, one crosses Via Arcobasso, also known as Via Orecchiette, where local ladies prepare, according to ancient recipes, fresh local pasta. Among the city's main attractions are the Basilica of St. Nicholas, built at the end of the 11th century, a pilgrimage destination and symbol of Catholic and Orthodox culture, and the Norman-Swabian Castle, a legacy of Frederick II of Swabia, between the sea and the historic center. In addition, many Apulian destinations are easily accessible from this city, such as the city of Trani (50 km), with its breathtaking scenery, rich in history and harmonious architectural lines, Castel del Monte (55 km), one of Italy's 54 UNESCO World Heritage sites, Alberobello with its typical trulli (55 km) and Castellana Grotte (45 km). Moving south, Polignano a Mare, known as the “Pearl of the Adriatic,” will leave you speechless with its crystal-clear waters and rock embroidered with cavities carved by the sea.Bari-Karol Wojtyla International Airport is less than a 30-minute drive away, and alternatively, Brindisi Airport is 115 km away. Bari central train station is a 5-minute drive away.
