Salento is much more than a summer story.
This can be granted by the many travellers who came to participate in the Capodanno dei Popoli, on Dec. 31 in Otranto, or to the beautiful street festivals like the one that welcomed the New year in Lecce.
This surprising winter life will also welcome those who’ll come and experience the warmth of fire celebrations, which heat the months of January, February and March.
