サンジョルジョイオニコのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

A dreadful promenade. The green spaces on both sides reek of feces, and there's litter everywhere. People sitting there harass pedestrians. This is definitely not a highlight for Taranto.

The fountain in the center of Piazza Ebalia, dedicated to the winds that blow in Taranto, was inaugurated in 1953.

Since 1974 the monument has celebrated the departure and arrival of sailors at the Taranto Arsenal

A MUST visit!

The origins of the fortress of Taranto date back to Byzantine times. The current appearance of the complex dates back to Ferdinand of Aragon, who had the outdated castle converted into a modern fortress at the end of the 15th century. The fortifications were further reinforced by the Spanish in the 16th century. At the end of the 19th century, the Aragonese Castle passed to the Italian Navy, which still owns the complex today.

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.
