The third episode of Visit Italy's podcast is online! This time we travel to the charming and enchanting Lecce. Of course, like a local.
Italy Like a Local, the Visit Italy podcast reaches its third appointment. This time we take you to one of the most surprising cities in southern Italy, the city where Ungaretti, referring to its baroque, exclaimed 'a magnificent dress', Lecce.
This city is called the "Lady of the Baroque" because of the massive presence of Baroque art spread in this area during the Spanish domination, around the seventeenth century.
You can’t help but be fascinated: its style and the leccese stone, illuminated by the sun or at sunset, becomes particularly suggestive and magical.
To better know Lecce, listen to our advice wisely elaborated by those who live in this city every day: listen to the suggestions of Lecce's people.
