Street orecchiette: Flavors that tell a story

One of the most exciting experiences in Bari Vecchia is observing (or participating in!) the making of hand-made orecchiette. On Via Arco Basso and the nearby alleys, the famous "ladies of orecchiette" of Bari work the fresh pasta with ancient gestures passed down through generations.

There’s nothing more authentic than savoring a plate of orecchiette with turnip tops or tomato sauce, right where this tradition was born.

Traditions, faith, and folklore

Bari Vecchia is alive with faith and tradition, especially during:

  • The Festa di San Nicola (May 7-9): With spectacular processions by land and sea.

  • The Living Nativity: Set up during the Christmas period in the alleys of the historic center.

These celebrations make the visit even more fascinating throughout the year. With Taxi Premium Matera, you can plan your tour based on events and experience authentic Bari at its best.

Sea and seafront: The city’s breath

After exploring the alleys, a stroll along Bari’s beautiful seafront is a must. Built in the 1930s, it offers a spectacular view of the Adriatic and the city’s historic buildings.

The seafront is also the perfect spot to enjoy one of the simplest and most delicious pleasures: a piping hot panzerotto, perhaps freshly bought from one of the many kiosks.
