Why this trip
The limestone of Lecce turns almost honey-coloured in the evening light, and that is exactly when the town belongs to couples: on Piazza Sant'Oronzo it is busy, while in the side lanes it is quiet. The Basilica di Santa Croce has a facade so densely covered with figures that you can stand in front of it for a long time. You will find time for it from April to June as well as in September and October. Plan two days in the town: on the first day you walk to the Duomo, the Castello di Carlo V and the Roman Amphitheatre, and on the second you simply sit in a café and let the day go by.
In the evening a plate of orecchiette in a courtyard is part of the programme. If you want the sea, travel from Lecce to the Salento, the peninsula with its pale sandy beaches. The town is a good base for discovering the coast on day trips and returning in the evening. Bari to the north and Calabria to the south can be added as further stops on the trip.
The flight takes about 1 to 1.5 hours. Honeymoon will draw up the order of the stages with you on a video call.
