A trip to Puglia - Monte Sant'Angelo

The impact here was a bit rough, the sanctiuary attracts many people, and activities are fluorishing around it!



Crowds and hot weather are not a good combination for me. But soon I was fascinated by the charm of the place, with its roofs and buildings



and views on the countryside



we visited the castle



with views on the town



art around



flowers



freshness, silence and emptiness!









we then headed to the sanctuary



along a busy street







and finally got there!



we could have taken a taxi



but had another stroll while the evening was approaching







we finally got ourselves a little drink and chat in a charming bar



while the street emptied as there was a football match starting!



and then returned back to the car





soaking in the late evening light



and regained quietness









The daily trip was not finished, we passed through Margherita di Savoia, where huge salt marshes were glowing in the sundown light







and finally reached for the night the town of Barletta, where a kind driver indicated us a great hotel, and we finally could get some rest after a wonderful and long day
