갈라티나 최고의 사이클링 경로

산타 마리아 알 바뇨에 있는 "콰트로 콜론네"는 16세기 요새(소위 토레 델 피우메)의 유적으로, 사라센 해적들의 침입을 막기 위해 건설되었습니다. 한때 이 요새는 성곽의 네 개의 요새화된 모퉁이를 이루었으며, 오늘날에는 이 독특한 네 개의 기둥만이 그 흔적을 보여줍니다. 이 역사적인 장소는 갈리폴리로 가는 해안 도로 바로 옆에 있으며, 현재는 오아시 콰트로 콜론네의 레스토랑과 이벤트 공간으로 사용되고 있습니다.

Very beautiful, partly ancient place. . .

I rode the cycle/pedestrian path that runs through Santa Caterina: a real pleasure to pedal on quiet roads, with suggestive views and a relaxing atmosphere. A perfect stretch to enjoy the bike in total serenity, immersed in the charm of the place.

A very popular summer tourist destination and prohibitive to reach in the summer period given the high influx of bathers, it is however a wonderful bay to visit in the low season, when the crystal clear water and the silence of nature takes over.

Churches and chapels throughout the world are dedicated to the Madonna under many different names. Sometimes the patronal feast is one of her numerous feast days in the liturgical calendar, but here in Sannicola, the Mother of God is invoked as "Our Lady of Consolation"—also known in German as "Comforter of the Afflicted." Veneration under this name perhaps particularly emphasizes the Madonna's importance in popular piety, for since the early Christian centuries, people have turned to the Mother of God with confidence and with their many sorrows.

Incredibly fascinating is the history of this place, already a place of worship in the first millennium AD. The interior holds surprises such as Byzantine frescoes, a scenic altar with a canopy and a wooden cross that tells so much about the vicissitudes of this place. It is certainly worth a visit.

Overlooking the bay north of Gallipoli and practically at sea level, it is perhaps less conspicuous than other watchtowers that surround the whole of Salento. It is worth observing it more carefully. Part of the Ciclonica Circuit https://cicloturismo.puglia.it/ciclovia-salento-ionico/
