Cisternino

This destination was added to our list on the recommendation of the helpful tourism worker in Conversano last week.

It happens to dovetail nicely with our plan to visit Martina Franca, so it's a perfect first stop.

Cisternino is a white town, another listed by the Borgh Italia as a most beautiful village. Towns are chosen for this list to highlight the best of the history, art, culture and landscapes of Italy.

Dazzling white buildings with greenery and colourful plants in pots abound. It really is entrancing to just let your feet follow your eyes!

The city speaks for itself visually, so the pictures can tell the story. I can only add that we had the best gelato so far, possibly ever, from a little place just under the clock tower.

12/10 recommend!Read more
