Otranto

Sea Town Salento, Italy

Narrow streets made of stone, which wind in a serpentine between the houses, today largely used to house characteristic shops and food and wine activities. A walk through the narrow streets of the city is essential, up to the top of the ramparts, where, comfortably seated for an aperitif or dinner, you can admire an inimitable panorama.

Otranto, also called "Porta d'Oriente", overlooks the Canale d'Otranto, the strait between Puglia and the Balkans. Inhabited center and easternmost territory of Italy, as well as the first to greet the new year, so much so that every New Year's Eve the Alba dei Popoli event is specially organized.
