Partying in Bari

February 7, 2009 · Print This Article

Bari is an exciting destination with plenty to offer for the weary among us.  While laden with a rich cultural history and its own share of colourful markets, Bari brings you an affordable respite from what the rest of Italy has to offer.

Cheaper than most of the popular Italian holiday spots, Bari sees a large influx of young revellers during the summer and weekends, especially around the beach spots.  Peschici, a popular tourist base, turns into a boisterous centre with revellers invading not just its beaches and caves but the local streets as well.

Food is an indulgence not to be missed.  With a host of activities at your disposal - from scuba diving in the Gargano region to horseback riding on the countryside - you’ll be longing for good food in no time. You’re in the right place in Bari as Pugliese cuisine is considered to be among the best in Italy. Have your fill of the local specialty orecchiette, along with taralli (breadsticks), buratta (locally-made mozzarella cheese with cream in the middle) and vegetables prepared in delicate flavours.
