Many visitors skip the capital city of Bari, and that’s a shame. It’s a grand old town, with broad boulevards, great shopping and a well-regarded university that supports a healthy supply of bars and restaurants.
The city’s most prominent building is the Basilica di San Nicola, a splendid church built in the Romanesque style, and one of the earliest Norman churches in Puglia.
