Gallipoli

Italy

Gallipoli is a fishing town on the Ionian coast of Puglia, southern Italy, its name meaning beautiful city in Greek. The old town occupies an island connected by a bridge to the mainland, a maze of lanes within seaward walls. Attractions include the Angevin castle, the baroque cathedral, the fish market and harbor, the Purity beach beneath the walls, and the Salento peninsula's beaches, baroque towns, and olive groves.
