A peninsula in the peninsula, a jewel kissed by the sun and framed by the sea that is the envy of the whole world. This – and much more – is the Salento, the physical region that is located at the southern end of Puglia and that constitutes a universe in itself made of natural, architectural, gastronomic and linguistic peculiarities quite unique.

At the southern end of the Apulian region, we find a subregion called the Salento peninsula. It is characterized by cultural, linguistic and historical peculiarities that make it, in effect, a small universe in its own right, which every year attracts millions of visitors from all over the world.
