Martina Franca

Martina Franca is another dreamy white Puglian town set on a hilltop with winding white alleys. The architecture is baroque and begins when entering the city through the arch called the Arco di Sant'Antonio. 






The Basilica di San Martino is the centerpiece of the town. It's possibly one of the most gorgeous basilicas we've ever seen. 



Apparently PJPII loved it as well, as he frequented the city and Basilica during his years as Pope. 


The Italians baffle me. It's 10:00 at night. What in the world are all these people doing out in the town square??!!!
