The town of Nardò is a place of delightful Baroque architecture featuring many listed buildings including historic churches and the cathedral. At the heart of the town’s life ─ especially in the evenings ─ is the lovely Piazza Salandra from which cobbled streets and inviting alleyways radiate in all directions. Palazzo Cariddi stands just a short walk from the square putting you within easy reach of a wide range of shops, restaurants and bars including two local wine-producing cantinas offering tastings of their delicious products. Another short walk brings you to the 15th Century castle of the Aquaviva of Aragon and the botanical gardens. Nardò is a superb location to enable you to explore the surrounding areas, beaches and National Park. Just outside town a splendid historical landscape opens up dotted with large stone Masserie farmhouses, old Moorish-style villas and Norman towers, while just five kilometres away lie the beach, the Ionian Sea and the pine forest of the Porto Selvaggio National Park
