Just over the border in Basilicata sits Matera, one of the oldest cities in the world. It's an easy day trip from Puglia and an unforgettable one, a whole city carved into stone with thousands of years of history behind it.

The White City of Ostuni, the trulli of Alberobello, and a beautiful stretch of Adriatic coast. This second leg of my Puglia road trip winds through the hill towns and countryside of the Valle d'Itria before ending at the sea.
