Ostuni — the White City & its litoranea

Puglia

Ostuni's old town is a maze of whitewashed houses, external staircases and a late-Gothic cathedral, ringed by Aragonese walls with a wide view over an olive-grove sea to the Adriatic. Below, the Litoranea and the Parco delle Dune Costiere run along dunes and coastal watchtowers.
