You step out of an air-conditioned van and the inland air tastes of sun-warmed limestone and crushed olive leaves. Narrow country roads unfurl between low drystone walls; cone-roofed trulli punctuate fields where ancient olive trees lean toward the Adriatic’s light.

History
Valle d’Itria’s trulli reflect a vernacular building response to limestone karst and historic tax practices; Ostuni’s white facades grew from medieval fortification and later coastal defense needs.
Conservation
Dry-stone terraces and millenary olive groves are fragile; stick to paths, avoid climbing trees and support local producers to sustain traditional land use.
