The Baroque Style & Gardens in Lecce

Let's visit together the wonderful Art & Nature of Lecce, noticed as the Capital of Baroque. Lecce is a fascinating town that you will always remember for the luxurious private palaces, with their courtyards and gardens, that we will admire inside, as well as for the precious symbols represented on the facade of many of the magnificent churches, that I will describe you. Passing together through its hidden streets, we will explore the labyrinthine old town, feeling the air of "slow life", typical of southern Italy, enjoying the authentic atmosphere of everyday life. We will discover together the amazing collection of sacred art, visiting the most ancient workshops of ceramic and papier-mache. Of course, you could not miss tasting the best local food like "puccia" (local bread with vegetables), or "pasticciotto" (sweet with custards), in one of the most traditional pastry shops in the town that I will suggest to you!
