About

About the area

Bari is like a mermaid: it has an entrepreneurial body and a beauty that belongs to the sea. The long avenues facing the shoreline are the driving force behind an astonishing tourist revival. The alleys of the old city, dense and narrow like an Arab souk, reflect the Mediterranean heart of this industrious city, often called 'the Milan of the South'. The Basilica of St Nicholas is a masterpiece of the Middle Ages, built in a Romanesque style made unique by French masters who arrived in the retinue of the Norman knights: it was erected to house the relics of the saint who inspired Father Christmas, smuggled out of Turkey by daring sailors from Bari. From the same period is the Cathedral of San Sabino, with its two impressive white stone geometrical patterns, and the castle of Emperor Frederick II, built to protect the port. There are many museums, picture galleries and theatres because Bari has always been a dynamic cultural and artistic centre in the past as in the present. The best time to visit is perhaps during the feast of St Nicholas, with the famous procession by the sea and the spectacular fireworks. In summer, everyone flocks to the beaches, such as the popular 'Pane e Pomodoro' beach beloved by the people of Bari. But all year round you can dine al fresco, tasting extraordinary raw fish, mussels and shellfish, the pride of local fishermen, or earthy dishes such as orecchiette with broccoli rabe and fava bean puree with chicory. All seasoned with olive oil reminiscent of ancient Greece, best paired with refined-tasting white and rosé wines. Because here, every corner is a new discovery, and everything offers magnificent wonders.
