Salento is also called "terra di mezzo", literally "the land in the middle", as it lies between two seas, it's a port on the mediterranean sea, a meeting place and a crossroads of different cultures and people. This land, once represented a departure station for the many emigrants who left this area, but today is a land of arrival and stop. The history of this land in inevitably associated to the sea: both conquerors and liberators came from the sea together with traders and dreamers...they all left their traces.
Salento, however, is also much more: culture, traditions, countryside, stretches of magnificent olive trees, gastronomy and handicraft. Each village is a small jewel with its old town, it courts, squares, countryside and baronial Palaces.
