Bari in 1 day - Bari, Italy
Old Bari
It's a nice to walk in the early morning when the bustling night spots, between Piazza Ferrarese and Piazza Mercantile are closed. Go a little further along the ancient walls, to enjoy the sea view and harbour.
The old town old Bari appears to enjoy itself. It's easy to run into old ladies on their front door, kneading pasta and leaving the orecchiette (local pasta) to dry out on the frames. You can smell strong scents, such as a good coffee made with Italian moka (espresso machine) or the stronger scents of caimbotto - dialect expression for mix - the famous fish sauce past is interwined with present new ambitious cultural projects, which show Bari as a progressive city, a soon to be active example is the
MUSASS - Archaeological Museum of Santa Scolastica. In front of the historic centre opens the Bari Murattiana, just like Murat wanted in 1813, with its gird of streets and beautiful buildings. If you love to jog, it's hard to find a better place than the imposing waterfront of Nazario Sauro.
