• The Adriatic coast between Brindisi and Leuca, the Ionian coast between Leuca and the gulf of Taranto, and a hundred municipalities in between which preserve a unique heritage of history and traditions, architecture, flavours, material knowledge. An irresistible mix radiates from the Lecce epicenter – cathedrals, sandy shores, centuries-old olive groves and Mediterranean scrub, prehistoric caves, dolmens and pagghiare, festivals and ritual banquets – increasingly surrounded by international tourism: the Green Guide tries to capture its essence, thanks also to the contribution of proudly Salento authors.
