๐Ÿฐ Ostuni: The White City of Puglia ๐ŸŒž

Nestled on a hill in Italy's Puglia region, Ostuni is a charming town filled with stunning white buildings, winding cobblestone streets, and amazing views of the Adriatic Sea. Often called "La Cittร  Bianca" (The White City), walking through Ostuni feels like stepping into a beautiful postcard. Take your time exploring the narrow alleys, finding hidden plazas, and enjoying the lively mood of this sunny town. Be sure to visit the impressive Ostuni Cathedral, which features a beautiful Gothic design and a lovely rose window. You can also enjoy breathtaking views from the highest points in the area. Whether you're sipping coffee in a cozy cafรฉ, browsing for unique local crafts, or just soaking in the beautiful scenery, Ostuni is a place that will truly capture your heart. โœจ *Travel Tip:* To make the most of your visit, try to come in the early morning or late afternoon. This way, you can avoid the heat and crowds, and watch the town glow in the warm sunlight. #ostuni #puglia #italytravel #whitecity #hiddengems #travelgoals #wanderlust #celebrateit

Ostuni

As part of a larger tour I made across Puglia a couple years ago, I had to stop by Ostuni. Ostuni is a unique town that resembles a bright cap rising up right from the flat plains near the southern coast of Italy. Its whitewashed defensive walls and houses in the old town with many winding streets, steps and beautifully decorated, colorful window frames can make you think you're somewhere in Greece. Also known as โ€œThe White Cityโ€, because of the white lime tones of its historic center, Ostuni stands on a 600-feet hill overlooking the nearby Adriatic coastline and I must say that Mediterranean vibes ooze from every corner and every alley. You could definitely spend an entire morning or afternoon wandering around and cherishing the slow life of Apulian people, making pasta or putting laundry out to dry. Details of its ancient past, baroque and medieval, can be found everywhere across the city in churches and old palaces. Night life is vibrant with tons of places where you can eat, enjoy a gelato or sip a cocktail. #italy #puglia #apulia #roadtrip #italytravel #italybeauties #mediterranean #awesomepic
