Ostuni is one of the most vibrant and unique cities in Puglia, Italy. It shines like a pearly white tiara, extending across three hills with the magnificent gem of a cathedral at its center. With some excellent restaurants, stylish bars and swish yet intimate places to stay, Ostuni is the perfect destination for an unforgettable vacation. Here you can buy some of the region's DOC 'Collina di Brindisi' olive oil – either delicate, medium or strong – direct from producers. In terms of sights, be sure to visit the Museo di Civiltà Preclassiche della Murgia, where you'll find Delia, a 25,000-year-old expectant mother, as well as Parco Archeologico e Naturale di Arignano, a cave and Palaeolithic burial ground. Lastly, don’t miss out on the Cathedral of Ostuni, which features an unusual Gothic-Romanesque-Byzantine facade. No trip to this charming city would be complete without exploring these and other attractions!
