Barocco Leccese:
Like all the other historical places of the Salento (province of Lecce) also Guagnano is built of warm tuff, a material which creates a special flair. Fascinating is also the barocco leccese, a local baroque stile which culminates in the facades of the churches of Lecce.
The Salento – Area between two seas:
The estate 'Masseria di Giovanni' is situated in the most southern province of Apulia, the Salento, an area between two seas, the Ionion and Adriatic with beautiful coasts, still existing greekophone enclaves, adorable and gentle people, interesting historical places, impressing estates (masserie). All over the year sensuosly religious festivities and a fascinating music- and dance-tradition, the Taranta Salentina (Pizzica) with concert highlights in midsummer. A simple but exquisite cuisine. A large variety of pasta dishes, fresh and local growing vegetables, fish and frutta di mare. Excellent wines and enchanting, baroque cities like Lecce, Nardò, Galatina, Gallipoli, Otranto etc. Still an authentic piece of Italy, newly-discovered in the last years by the Italians itself. The straight tip for insiders!
