TARANTO: THE CITY OF TWO SEAS

PUGLIA

Puglia or Apulia, is the southernmost eastern region of Italy. In fact it is considered the “heel of the boot”. Its coastline, overlooking the Adriatic sea to the east and the Ionian sea to the south and west, is one of the most beautiful in all of Italy, with silvery olive orchards stretching all the way to the long sandy beaches touched by one of the clearest and cleanest seas in the Mediterranean. It is an ancient land, and one which was invaded many times in its history. One can still see towers built to ward off invaders centuries ago.
