Baroque architecture defines the walkable centre of this Apulian town in the province of Taranto, where churches, palaces, and piazzas cluster within easy reach of cafés and restaurants. Since 1975, Martina Franca has hosted the Festival della Valle d'Itria, an annual summer opera festival that draws audiences to the town each year. Set on the southern slopes of the Murge plateau, it sits within a wider region ringed by UNESCO World Heritage sites.
