Beautiful Unesco Town Not touristic at all.

Traffic, heat and pollution in the city centre
In a nutshell
The thrill of Bari will always be the lure of other ports across the water, but there are more subtle attractions.
dplesko Says: Alberobello is a small town about 50 km from Bari. It is famous for its unique trulli constructions. The Trulli of Alberobello are part of the UNESCO World Heritage sites list since 1996.The Italian term il trullo refers to a house whose internal space is covered by a dry...
Ronaldinho86 Says: The Basilica of San Nicola is the symbol of Bari and,together with its square,the heart of the Old Town,Bari Vecchia.Consacrated in 1197,this is the first and greatest example of the Apulian Romanesque,with its imposing facade in white calcareous stone flanked by 2 cut...
Ronaldinho86 Says: The Petruzzelli theatre is one of the most famous symbols of Bari.It was built between 1898 and 1903,in reply to Bari's cultural needs and ambitions,after a competition advertised by the Municipal Administration that decided to grant the public property for the private...
Ronaldinho86 Says: Inaugurated by the king of Naples Gioacchino Murat who laid its foundation stone at the beginning of Corso Vittorio Emanuele II in 1813,the Murat Quartier or Borgo Murattiano (the commercial and economical center of Bari) is characterized by rationality,with its long and...

Bari Napoli: Pizzeria and spaghetteria with a twist or two
BlueLlama Says: On the airport bus into Bari several passengers remarked on this place. It was the first inviting-looking restaurant we'd seen in the new town - lively, busy and colourful. And conveniently only a minute or two from our hotel (the Boston) we ended up eating there on the...
Ronaldinho86 Says: § I've decided to write a short guide to some of those who are,in my opinion naturally,the best restaurants and pizzerie of Bari,and that I would advice to a friend.It's difficult because in Bari there are a lot of pizzerie and restaurants (many of which good) and I've not...

How to reach Bari from the Airport and viceversa
Ronaldinho86 Says: The International Airport of Bari-Palese "Karol Wojtyla" is connected with the city centre (Central Station-Piazza Aldo Moro) by the Amtab bus n°16 in 35/40 minutes(price: 0,80 euro) or directly by the Tempesta bus in 25 minutes(price: 4,13 euro - Timetables in the internet...
craic Says: I was only in Bari to catch the ferry to Dubrovnik and had been told I could walk to the ferry station. I had plenty of time so off I set from the train station. It was just that bit too long for me - especially dragging my suitcase. And I think it was too much for my...
Torrefazione Caffè Oriental Bari - Coffee Roaster: Don't miss this shop in Bari!!!
FabioR Says: I found a little shop in Bari, that you can't miss in this city.It's older Coffee Roaster, and you can try them coffee's blends, they'll grind for you fresh, for moka, espresso, or like you want.They sell good wines, extra vergine oil, tea, spices, liquors, and more typical...
Via de Rossi: For gifts and window shopping
BlueLlama Says: This long street in Bari's new town is excellent for gift and souvenir-buying as well as just browsing while you wander. There are beautifully-maintained florists with flowers and plants (lots of cacti here, unsurprisingly), shops selling artisanal pasta and cheeses as well...
davide78 Says: Actually i read some comments on certain turistic guides pointing out how the old town of Bari could be dangerous and so on.. Far from being true!! The worst thing that can happen is meeting some local trying to buy you drinks... There are dozens of bars/pubs /pizzeria in...
Ronaldinho86 Says: I can give you only an advice: in the Old town,it's useful and sufficient to keep one's eyes open,during the day;during the night,maybe it could be better to stay on the borders next to the Borgo Murattiano,full of life and bar/pizzerie/restaurants,or however not to...
Ronaldinho86 Says: Situated on the top of a cliff,in a part of the Adriatic coast rich in coves and caves created by the waves,Polignano a Mare is a perfect mix of historical and environmental beauty.Its origins are very old,but it was under the Romans that the ancient Neapolis developed: it...
Ronaldinho86 Says: Castel del Monte is protected by the UNESCO as a World Heritage of Humanity.It's a castle built on a hill near Bari in 13th century by the Emperor Federico II di Svevia,maybe as an hunting residence.Unguarded since the XVII century,it was deprived of sculptures and...
Ronaldinho86 Says: The"Palazzo della Provincia" of Bari,designed by Luigi Baffa and situated on the Lungomare Nazario Sauro,houses the Pinacoteca Provinciale (Provincial Art Gallery),in which are exposed not only a great collection of Apulian paintings from XI to XX century (among the...
Ronaldinho86 Says: Bari ovelooks the sea,it's strictly linked to the sea,it has a big port...but what about the beaches??There is only one public beach in Bari,Pane e Pomodoro (in reality there's another one,Torre Quetta,actually closed because of remediation works),situated on the southern...
Helpfulness
Projected by the famous architect Renzo Piano and built between 1987 and 1990 on the occasion of the FIFA World Cup played in Italy in 1990,the San Nicola Football Stadium is one of the best and modern Italian stadiums and the seat of the house-matches of the football team A.S.Bari.
It's characterized by a modern particular form similar to a spaceship divided in 26 petals,and it can contain more than 58'000 spectators.The Third Place Final Italy-England in 1990 and the UEFA Champions League 1991 Final were played here.
It has been chosen among the 8 stadiums indicated in the Italian candidature for Euro 2016.
**Finally after 8 long years of suffering,the AS Bari, football team of the city, is back in Serie A.
100,000 people have led the team in triumph through the streets of the city, now completely covered in white and red!!**
FORZA BARI !!!!!!!
Equipment: Strict laws and restrictions are now applied in Italy to enter in the stadiums

Safety and police in Bari's Old Town
BlueLlama Says: So many things have been said on this subject - many negative - that I thought it worth mentioning that I found the area to be very tranquil. Obviously, my perspective might have been different if my camera had been stolen or if I'd been mugged, but then that has happened in...

I came to be in Bari by accident, really. It seemed like the best way to get to Albania, a trip I'd been planning for some time. In the event Albania didn't come off and I ended up spending a little...

After reading the negative comments on VT it was with a degree of trepidation that I detrained from Bari Centrale to find that perhaps those warnings were indeed to be heeded. Arriving about 7 pm:...
