Puglia's Ionic coast
Taranto, which was named Taras by the ancient Greeks, is really two cities rolled into one. Geographically, this City of Two Seas, is divided by the Mar Piccolo and the Mar Grande. Traces of the city's past historic importance can be found in the Duomo of S. Cataldo, the Aragonese Castle, the remains of a Doric temple, and the many fascinating exhibits on display in the MArTa, National Archaeological Museum. Taranto, which is the...
