Itinerary
A must-do when you are in Polignano a Mare - visit the statue of Domenico Modugno. He is the world-famous composer of "Nel Blu dipinto di Blu" also known as "Volare" and he was born here in Polignano a. mare
This arch is located near the Via Triana bridge and is the gateway to the old town. Well maintained and located near a tree-lined road with a restaurant below. It's close to the tourist information office which is open until 10 pm and the staff are very helpful.
Polignano a mare is a magical place, especially at sunset. The bays, cliffs, and verandas overlooking the sea are pleasing to the eye and heart. The white houses disappeared into the sky and the sea. So beautiful, a shame that there are many souvenir shops and restaurants.
Polignano a Mare is a wonderful tiny medieval town renowned as the Adriatic's Pearl. It is a wonderful location for swimming in pristine waters and exploring a gorgeous historic center by the sea.

About Bari
Bari is the port city of Puglia on the Adriatic, with a maze-like old town, a medieval basilica holding the relics of St Nicholas and a long seafront.
Bari's old town, Bari Vecchia, is a tangle of white lanes and tiny squares on a peninsula pointing into the Adriatic, and many of its streets feel more like shared courtyards. The Basilica of San Nicola, begun in 1087 to house the relics of St Nicholas, draws both Catholic and Orthodox pilgrims, and the cathedral and the Swabian castle stand close by.
Top-ranked sights in Bari: Swabian Castle (Castello Svevo), Trulli of Alberobello World Heritage Site (Trulli di Alberobello), Piazza del Ferrarese.
