The Caves of Castellana
Were discovered on 23rd January 1938 by professor Franco Anelli and its possible to visit them underground. The route takes from 50 minutes to 2 hours and it winds for three kilometres among vast caves which are rich in concretionary, long and narrow corridors and the enchanting White Cave, a real wonder of nature with white stalactites "raining" from the roof, created by slowly dripping waters. The existence of the caves of Castellana (set a few kilometres from the town of Castellana) was known already in the 18th century but no one had ever ventured to explore and study them inside. It is a complex of karstic underground cavities formed by waters of a river filtered in from fissures and absorbed by calcareous ground.

Shore
The coast situated to the south of Bari is characterized by the rocks but there are also several sandy beaches especially on the coast near Monopoli. These beaches on which it is nice to relax and swim, are mainly concentrated on the area of Polignano a Mare. In the north the shore of San Giovanni is the only one with fine sand in that tract. The beach of San Vito, set only a few kilometres from there in a small fishermen's village, can be distinguished for the beauty of the landscape.
Cala Paura instead is set right next to Polignano and it is formed by white cobbles. To the south of Monopoli, in addition to the frequented beach of Capitolo where the sea is particularly clean in some tracts, the narrow and rocky Cala di Torre Incina, overlooked by a tower having the same name and dating back to 1539 is worth mentioning together with the shore of Santo Stefano which takes its name from the nearby Benedictine abbey dating back to 1086.

Putignano
Putignano is the small jewel of the Puglian coast, immersed between the sky and the sea. This luminous landscape painted by harmonious tones of blue is a treat for the eyes.
The town is famous for its Carneval, the longest in Italy, and has very old origins: it starts on 26th December and lasts till the Sunday after Ash Wednesday.

Monopoli
Monopoli is a very important coastal city. Its old town is dominated by the Romanesque 12th century cathedral dedicated to Madonna della Madia. A Byzantine icon of the Virgin that according to tradition the sea gave on board raft to the faithful people of Monopoli (this event is remembered on 16th January and 15th August with a joyful festival) is conserved in the church. Among other sights are the Castle with its mighty, fortified walls, the fishing port (the fishers moor their polychromatic boats in the port of Monopoli, a strategic place for the oil trade which made this Puglian city an important point of reference even for the powerful Venice between 15th and 16th century), Santa Maria Amalfitana's and San Salvatore's churches and the rocky crypt dedicated to Madonna del Soccorso.

San Nicola di Senna
The church of San Nicola dating back to the 16th century is set in the intersection point of seven roads. The surrounding hills were part of the vast Feud of Genna, once covered by vineyards. Several traces scattered in the area around the church (ceramic findings, mirrors and other things) indicate that the whole area was inhabited during Middle Ages.
Neviera of San Nicola di Genna prove the industrial ability of the ancient populations. It was used to obtain ice from snow in a natural way. The snow was conserved until the warmer season in a deep underground room dating back to 1788. If looked carefully, its possible to see the surprising building techniques contrived in order to carry out even the most difficult stages of the work.
