Thanks to its geographical position and its history over the centuries, Apulia offers many holiday options. The crystal-clear sea, the cities with rich history and simple and original gastronomy make this region able to satisfy even the most demanding tourists.
In particular, TorreLama Room Breakfast is located in Trani, in a strategic position, the ideal starting point to visit castles, cathedrals and cities of art.
The town of Trani is famous all over the world for its architectural beauties. The historical centre rises around the arm of the small port that for centuries has characterised the socio-economic fabric of the city. The skyline seems suspended between land and sea and its icon is the famous Cathedral dedicated to San Nicola Pellegrino. The building is one of the most famous examples of Romanesque architecture also for the direct view of the sea and was declared by UNESCO as a “messenger monument of a culture of peace”. Its construction began in 1099 and accessed via a double flight of stairs leading to the bronze portal, one of the most interesting examples of the style in Southern Italy, is the work of Barisano da Trani and was completed in 1175.
In addition to the Cathedral, a must for those in search of historical and artistic treasures is the Castle which rises a few meters da the prestigious Romanesque church. Among the few castles in Italy to be built on the sea, this structure was designed by Frederick II, as a defensive element. Today it is particularly famous for the re-enactment of the wedding of king Manfredi, son of the “Puer Apuliae”, with Elena of Epiro, in 1259. Not too far da the castle there is also the Jewish quarter. Venturing into these narrow streets you have the chance to admire the old synagogues including the Sinagoga di Sant’Anna and its museum.
“Trani is perfect for visiting many cities in Apulia. From there I moved to Castel del Monte and it takes just less than an hour to reach Bari “

Not far da Trani is located Castel del Monte,one of the symbols of Puglia. The mysterious manor da the octagonal shape wanted by Frederick II extends with its profile over the endless countryside surrounding the city of Andria.
A few kilometres away it is worth stopping in Barletta, a city famous for the evocation of the epic chivalrous battle known as “The Challenge of Barletta”. Here you can immerse yourself in the impressionist atmospheres of the works of Giuseppe De Nittis.
For those who love uncontaminated nature a walk in the National Park of Alta Murgia is mandatory, where outcropping rocks, old carob trees and bushes of Mediterranean scrub draw a suspended landscape.

Apulia is a unique territory thanks to the mix that over the centuries has been built between art, history and natural landscapes. Being in the heart of the Mediterranean, his vocation has always been hospitality. Its streets have been trampled since the times of Ancient Greece and over the centuries have seen alternating Byzantines, Normans, Swabians and Angevins. The presence of all these peoples is engraved in historical artefacts of immeasurable value such as castles, churches and noble palaces as well as real villages.
