Things to do in  Brindisi

Gateway to Puglia’s Val d’Itria and Salento peninsula, Brindisi is more than just a strategic arrival point by air and sea. Its old town is peppered with Roman ruins and baroque churches to explore before a market tour and cooking class or a stroll down the palm-lined main boulevard for a seafood feast along the waterfront promenade. Having sampled the city’s culture and cuisine, travelers are ready to set out for nearby destinations like Alberobello, Locorotondo, Martina Franca and Polignano a Mare in the Itria Valley and Lecce further south.
