Puglia is one of the most photogenic regions in Italy for the beauty and variety of its landscapes, for the light that illuminates and for the emotions it arouses, which are reflected in the lens of the photographers.

Here is a selection of the best photos of Puglia with links to the places where they were taken. What is your favorite?

Domenico Modugno’s statue

A tribute to the great singer by his home country, Polignano a Mare. The bronze statue was launched in 2009 on the promenade dedicated to him.

Lama Monachile

A wonderful small beach in the heart of Polignano a Mare. Nestled between two high rocky walls, Lama Monachile boasts the Blue Flag and 4 Sails of Legambiente.

Grotta della Poesia

Known as one of the most beautiful natural pools in the world, La Grotta della Poesia (the Cave of Poetry) attracts thousands of visitors every year from all around the world.

Torre Sant’Andrea

Among the best photos of Puglia, there is certainly Torre Sant’Andrea. You will have the chance to lounge on the beach, swim between rock arches and, why not, jump from a cliff.

Punta Palascia

One of the best shots you’ll ever get is at Punta Palascia, the easternmost point of Italy.

Locorotondo

This is a town to simply get lost in for a few hours. The historic center is well maintained and full of wonderful views.

Cisternino

This small, whitewashed town has been designated as one of the most beautiful villages of Italy.  Charming old town not to miss!

Alberobello

 

Among the best photos of Puglia, there is certainly an unmissable one: Alberobello. The belvedere next to the church of Santa Lucia is one of the best spots to take beautiful pictures of the Trulli.
