>> Weather in Apulia

 
 

Puglia, historically known as Apulia, faces towards the east, towards lands that have left their stamp on the region's culture. The Ionian and Adriatic seas wash her shores, with Puglia's territory predominantly divided between hills and plains, stitched together by countless olive groves. A holiday in this south-east region of Italy reveals architectural works of rare beauty. You can see the white houses of Ostuni sparkle like a pearl in the light of the sun, or you can view a group of strange birds that inhabit the bewitching Tremiti islands. At Alberobello the unusual trulli houses attract the attention of every visitor.
