puglia travel guide
Puglia constitutes the heel of the boot represented by peninsular Italy.

» Bologna farm -After Venice, the city is one of the best looking in the country.

There are enough monuments and curiosities for several days' leisured exploration, but Bologna is really enjoyable just for itself.

» Umbria farm -Pastoral, hilly, and fertile, Umbria is similar to Tuscany, but with fewer tourists. Its once-fortified network of hill towns is among the most charming in Italy. Crafted from millions of tons of gray-brown rocks, each town is a testament to the masonry and architectural skills of many generations of craftsmen. Cities particularly worth a visit are Perugia, Gubbio, Assisi, Spoleto and Orvieto.
