Locorotondo

In Locorotondo, the sirocco is a voice that chases itself through the narrow streets and celebrates in Largo Bellavista, carrying the laughter of children who open their arms to the sky and play at flying, carried by the wind. Locus Rotundus follows the slow, sinuous slope of the hill, and the white of the lime settles on the green meadows of the Idria Valley. Locorotondo is a historic center of picturesque corners, of sounds that drift from the roofs of the cummerse and touch the balconies adorned with a thousand-colored flowers. The narrow streets are imperfect circles that gather around the main church, passing through Piazza Vittorio Emanuele and its municipal villa, which, overlooking the Idria Valley like a balcony, has guarded gossip and secrets in the shade of its trees for over a hundred years. Locorotondo is made of stories told by word of mouth, like lullabies, like the Diana played by the bands on San Rocco. Locorotondo is the authenticity of a village steeped in ancient traditions, with an identity expressed through its cuisine and its authentic, delicate flavors: the perfect place to begin your exploration of this charming town.
