The old town centre of Bari remains very much intact and is clearly distinct from the modern developments that surround it.
Whilst the old town has a maze of small, narrow cobbled streets that wind in an almost circular pattern, the modern town has a series of straight, parallel streets that speak of modernism and organization.
It is a true pleasure to explore the narrow streets of the old town to see the local culture, marvel at the fine buildings and see where this great city arose from.
Consider starting at the Basilica San Nicola and work your way towards the other cathedral and the castle whilst walking through the side streets and maybe finding a quaint café to enjoy a drink in.
