Want to experience the magic of Christmas?
Here are three good reasons to visit Locorotondo, near Bari.
It's often thought that to experience the magical Christmas atmosphere, you have to travel far from your hometown and head elsewhere.
For many, that might be true, but when you're in Puglia , Christmas becomes something extraordinarily magical and too beautiful to wish for anywhere else.
The many villages surrounding the Apulian capital, in fact, manage to surprise the thousands of people who decide to visit these places during the Christmas period , partly because their structure and architecture already make them very characteristic, and partly because the local authorities decide to enhance them with lights, decorations, events and so on.
It almost seems like a real competition between the various villages of Puglia since each one always proves more beautiful than the last, and all to the benefit of the Apulians and those who, like you, are deciding which place to visit during a sweet trip to Puglia .
The Itria Valley (an area of Puglia spanning the provinces of Bari, Brindisi, Taranto, and even Salento) is already a sought-after destination due to its beautiful villages, and Locorotondo is one of them.
Reasons to visit? Here they are:
