DESCRIZIONE PROPOSTA
A marvelous experience into the finest baroque city, Lecce, also called «the lady of Baroque». Its unique style is spread across the buildings of the city like the beautiful Balisica of Santa Croce and the Duomo of Santa Maria Assunta, built with «Leccese stone», a kind of yellow and gold stone. Walking around the old town, little handicraft shops can be found where you can look at the processing of Leccese stone and papier-mâché. Through the characteristic streets you’ll be guided to the heart of the city: the charming Sant’Oronzo square, near Carlo V castle. Besides the baroque influence, Lecce holds older influences dating back to the Roman era, like the astonishing amphitheatre.
L'OFFERTA INCLUDE
A local products tasting to follow with «rustici leccesi» matched with good wines, almond-paste pastries and «pasticciotti leccesi»
