RadiatorAmid Baroque cathedrals, masserias, castles and towers on the unspoiled sea, Puglia is an ancient land, traversed by centuries of history and art that have left unmistakable marks. Here lies Lecce, in the deepest South, marked by slow rhythms, influenced by Magna Graecia and Byzantine rule, in the heart of Salento full of enchanting villages and breathtaking landscapes. Lecce, the "queen of baroque," is one of the most enchanting cities in southern Italy. Strolling through the city's alleys, everything is enveloped in a dazzling light thanks to the blue of the endless sky and the golden color of the Pietra Leccese, who has made it possible to write the history of Baroque. Here where art is everywhere, among churches and aristocratic palaces that fascinate with unexpected scenery, where the color of the stone soothes and leads into almost meditative paths, no one can leave Lecce without admiring Piazza Duomo at night. It just has to be done. You will understand why. Of Messapian foundation in Roman times it was called Lupiae. In the Middle Ages, the city's fate is tied to the Norman dynasty, but it was during Spanish rule that Lecce ushered in its heyday. Steeped in pale stone lacework and Baroque churches, here where everything is harmonious, Baroque reaches its apotheosis in the splendid Basilica of Santa Croce, which, together with the Convent of the Celestines, represents one of the greatest architectural complexes. A city that tells of history, culture, traditions linked to ancient customs and a simple and genuine cuisine with typical dishes to fall in love with. Only 30 minutes from Brindisi airport and a few kilometers south of the Itria Valley, Lecce is almost halfway between the Adriatic Sea and the Ionian Sea, which can be reached in a few minutes.
