    Taranto's old town lies on an island between the Mare Piccolo and Mare Grande, connected to the mainland by only two bridges. Many people here still make their living from fishing and the oyster beds of the Mare Piccolo. The sea is present everywhere, even in the paintings of street artists.

      Connecting bridge between Old and New Town - the bridge can be opened for shipping, so that they can enter or leave the protective bay.
