Places to see in ( Puglia - Italy )
Puglia, a southern region forming the heel of Italy’s “boot,” is known for its whitewashed hill towns, centuries-old farmland and hundreds of kilometers of Mediterranean coastline. Capital Bari is a vibrant port and university town, while Lecce is known as “Florence of the South” for its baroque architecture. Alberobello and the Itria Valley are home to “trulli,” stone huts with distinctive conical roofs.
Puglia is Italy’s ascendant region, a place where savvy travellers bored or worn down by the crowds of Campania and Tuscany escape for something a bit less frenetic and manicured. Top of the list for prospective newcomers is the food. Puglia’s cucina povera is about as earthy as Italian cuisine gets without eating it straight out of the soil. Then there’s the exuberant architecture, best summarised by the word ‘baroque’ and exhibited in all its finery in the glittering ‘Florence of the South’, Lecce, and its smaller sibling, Gallipoli.
With the longest coastline of any region in mainland Italy, Puglia is larger than many people realise. In the north, the spur of land sticking out into the Adriatic is occupied by the balmy microclimates of the Gargano peninsula, a kind of miniature Amalfi with fewer poseurs. The Italian boot’s ‘stiletto’ hosts the land of Salento, a dry scrubby region famous for its wines, and bloodthirsty Greek and Turkish history. In between lies the Valle d’Itria, a karstic depression populated by vastly contrasting medieval towns that have little in common apart from their haunting beauty. Of the larger cities, Brindisi, an erstwhile Roman settlement, is one of the major departure points for Greece (by ferry), while Puglia’s largest metropolis, Bari has a university and trendier inclinations.

Places to see in ( Taranto - Italy ) Ponte Girevole
The bridge of San Francesco di Paola in Taranto is the structure that connects the island of Borgo Antico with the peninsula of Borgo Nuovo. Inaugurated on 22 May 1887 by Admiral Ferdinando Acton , the bridge dominates a navigable canal 400 meters long and 73 meters wide, which joins the Mar Grande to the Mar Piccolo.
Built by the Italian industrial construction company ( Castellammare di Stabia ) by Alfredo Cottrau , based on a project by Ing. Giuseppe Messina who directed the construction work, originally consisted of a large six-sided arch in wood and metal, divided into two arms that turned independently from one another around a vertical pin placed on a shoulder. The operation took place thanks to hydraulic turbines powered by a large tank located on the adjacent Aragonese Castle , capable of 600 cubic meters of water that in fall operated the two arms of the bridge.
The structure was subsequently modernized in the years 1957 - 1958 , introducing an electrical operation, but keeping the engineering principles of the then constituting Directorate of military engineering for the Navy unaltered. The project was carried out by the Società Nazionale Officine di Savigliano, for everything concerning the mechanical organs and electrical controls. The new bridge was inaugurated by the President of the Republic Giovanni Gronchi on 10 March 1958 , and was named after San Francesco di Paola , protector of the sea people.
The bridge currently measures 89.9 meters in length and 9.3 meters in width. The revolving bridge is periodically subjected to accurate maintenance interventions, both of the mechanical parts and of the entire metal structure. Each half-bridge that actually constitutes its structure, rotates around a central pivot anchored by means of bolts to the concrete quay, moving over a rack by means of a pinion always in a grip driven by an electric motor. Everything is based on a rolling track consisting of a series of steel cylinders. The opening of the bridge is necessary to allow the passage of large military ships directed to the docks and basins of the Navy Arsenal located in the Mar Piccolo for maintenance work. The management of the opening,Military Navy .
The procedures for opening and closing the bridge require a total of about twenty minutes, the maneuvers are conducted from the inside of two cockpits located near each half-bridge, while four workers check the correct operation of the automatic devices, ready to intervene in failure of the same.
The first manual operations to be carried out are those of removing the eight coverings and uncoupling the two bolts located at the ends, which have the purpose of making the bridge stable when it is closed. The actual opening begins with the rotation of about 45 ° of the half-bridge on the Borgo Antico side, then with the 90 ° rotation of the Borgo Nuovo half-bridge, followed by the completion of the rotation of the Borgo Antico side.
The revolving bridge is the main symbol of the city of Taranto, and can be considered for its uniqueness a marvelous naval engineering work . Moreover, the transit of ships with the crew on the bridge is a very evocative moment for family members and friends who greet their loved ones from the seafront.

TREKKING - ASCIANO - Valle delle Fonti - Mirteto - Al Castagno - di Sergio Colombini
La Valle delle Fonti si trova sul versante sud-ovest del Monte Pisano, è una delle formazioni geologiche più antiche della Toscana, questa divide la piana pisana da quella lucchese, si innalza in mezzo a territori oggi bonificati, ma in passato paludosi, fino a raggiungere una quota di 917 mt. slm con il Monte Serra.
Un' importante risorsa che ha dato il nome alla Valle e che l'ha resa oggetto di sistemazioni e trasformazioni è l'acqua che sgorga da sorgenti purissime. Fu per primo il Gran Duca Cosimo I a voler costruire un acquedotto a condotta forzata per incanalare le acque della Valle delle Fonti. Le prime canalizzazioni delle sorgenti più importanti risalgono alla seconda metà del cinquecento.
La costruzione dell'Acquedotto mediceo, voluta dal figlio di Cosimo I, Ferdinando, venne realizzato negli ultimi anni del XVI secolo e l'acqua finalmente raggiunse Pisa.
L'antico borgo monastico di Mirteto posto alle pendici del monte Conserva, attestato fin dal 1150, comprendeva la chiesa di Santa Maria di Mirteto, dipendente dal monastero di San Michele in Verruca e successivamente dalla pieve di Ascino. Anche se tutto il complesso è abbandonato mantiene ancora l'assetto medioevale, oltre alla chiesa della metà dell' XI restano i ruderi delle abitazioni, dei granai e del frantoio. Nel 1712 la chiesa compare come oratorio privato della famiglia Ricci, ora estinta.
