You push off from Martina Franca as the town wakes: baroque facades still cool, stone piazzas empty, and the low whirr of an e-bike joins the chorus of morning birds.

The Itria Valley’s trulli and dry stone walls date to pre-modern agrarian practices; lime whitewashing served both cooling and antiseptic purposes in stone houses.
