1) Via Venezia, the old Bari wall
Probably the first road you will take when arriving in Bari vecchia .
Via Venezia is the road that from Piazza del Ferrarese , one of the main entrance squares to the ancient village, will accompany you along the splendid wall that surrounds a full-bodied side of Bari Vecchia .

This alley, in addition to being characterized by the typical houses of the neighborhood, is famous for the ladies who prepare and sell fresh pasta every day in front of the hundreds of tourists who cross the street every day. A tasty and engaging attraction that over time has become a ritual for those who look out for the first time in the oldest district of Bari . Not to be missed.

Another very interesting street to take is S trada Palazzo di Città .
