Salento is the south-eastern extremity of the Apulia region, often described as the "heel" of the Italian "boot"; this is one of the most touristy Italian areas during the summertime. The entire coastland offers amazing sights, characterized by steep cliffs and a number of marine caves holding prehistoric treasures. The hinterland is dominated by wide fields cultivated with olive trees and nice small lightful towns built with the local stone called "Pietra Leccese".
