Puglia, Italy

Puglia Italy

Here is a translation of the provided text into English (USA): Nestled among fields of olive trees, beautiful like no other place in the world, born from this red earth that scents and transforms the surrounding landscape into a series of wonderful chromatic effects. This is the Valle d'Itria, also known as the Valley of the Trulli, which stretches across the provinces of Bari, Brindisi, and Taranto, and includes the towns of Alberobello, Carovigno, Castellana Grotte, Ceglie Messapica, Cisternino, Fasano, Locorotondo, Martina Franca, Noci, Ostuni, Putignano, San Michele Salentino, San Vito dei Normanni, and Villa Castelli. Whether it's the white color of their houses or the vegetation that surrounds them, each town, each village in the valley is imbued with a magical, almost fairy-tale atmosphere. In the heart of the Itria Valley, a must-see is Alberobello, which was included in UNESCO's World Heritage List as a World Heritage Site in 1996. It's impossible not to be captivated by the alleys of the Monti and Aja Piccola neighborhoods. But it's not just about Alberobello. The landscape of the entire area is dotted with these typical constructions: just think of Cisternino, which stands out in the so-called Murgia dei Trulli, included along with Locorotondo among the most beautiful villages in Italy. The latter, known until the end of the 19th century as "Luogorotondo" for its characteristic round shape of the inhabited center, is part of the Terra dei Trulli. A "Journey to the Center of the Earth" is not to be missed, to the caves of Castellana (in the municipality of Castellana Grotte): the Grave, the first and largest cavern and the only one connected with the outside; and the White Grotto, which will leave visitors speechless.
