Lecce is rightly known as the "Florence of the South". This beautiful city in the heart of the Apulia region will enchant you with its ornate Baroque palaces, romantic squares and the unique atmosphere of the historic centre. But a holiday in Lecce is not just about the sights. Within minutes you can reach the beaches of the Ionian and Adriatic Sea, so you can easily combine exploring the city with relaxing by the sea. In the evenings, local restaurants offer specialities of Salento cuisine, fresh seafood, traditional orecchiette pasta or the famous pasticciotto. During your stay, it's also worth visiting the picturesque coastal town of Otranto, the white streets of Gallipoli or the dramatic cliffs at the easternmost tip of Italy at Santa Maria di Leuca. Lecce is the ideal destination for those who want to combine history, great food, the relaxed atmosphere of southern Italy and exploring the beauty of the Salento Peninsula.
