Lecce - The Florence of the South - Evening Walk - 4K - With Captions

[@estherkisob9919]

Evening walks in Italy are the best. This is an incredible beautiful city with rich history, belongs to "Magna Graecia" simply means (greater Greece), cities in the region of Southern Italy. These regions were colonized by the Greeks. I love the Churches with the Piazzas near them. Thanks a lot for this incredible tour.

[@ProWalks]

Hey, thanks for watching. I hope to film some more evening walks coming up, as soon as the Christmas lights go up.

[@flowrider5142]

No cars!! No streets!! No pollution !! Just people laugh’s and nice atmosphere🥳🍾 This is Italy 🇮🇹

[@Norman_Peterson]

ahahahahahaha LOL . I live in Lecce from 1974. This is this is just the historic center which is also tiny. If you leave the center which is closed to traffic you find queues of cars, road rudeness, potholes, broken pavements, dog shit on the ground and incivility in every place. Stop watching a video and think it's the only reality. It's a VIDEO. Leave the historic center and you find shit in Lecce. ​NO POLLUTION IN ITALY? ahahahah

[@44Quinlan]

It's fun to watch people walking, hear music and laughter, see the buildings and streets. Great job showing what night walks are like in Italy.

[@steelframe]

And. . .the award for Best Cinematographic Transition goes to 46:00, where the large gate at the end of a quiet corridor closes to darkness as you approach and a small portal opens and you arrive to new life and light in the street beyond. Fellini would be proud. Another excellent tour!

Lecce is a gem. Love it there. Two places of interest that I didn't see that you noted, is the ancient underground olive oil mill near the Sant'Oronzo Column and also the Jewish Museum in what was formerly a synagogue, and Jewish section of Lecce, near Basilica di Santa Croce. Very interesting history of the Jewish in the Salento. Anyway, I enjoyed the stroll during la passaggiata in this lovely city.

Al primo posto senza dubbio Bari (si sa). Ma poi viene Gallipoli ed anzi c'e' un punto della costiera con un paese di cui non ricordo il nome che e' il punto focale anche per i paracadutisti della folgore.

I believe it’s typically a sign of hopeless youth in struggling economies but it’s so senseless on those beautiful ancient buildings. What do you know of it? Thank you

[@ProWalks]

I don't know the background on that, but it is definitely a problem just about everywhere you go in southern Italy.

[@Norman_Peterson]

It gives you a glimpse of what the rest of the city is like and makes you understand what people you find there. There is a lot of incivility, rudeness, not to mention dog poop on the sidewalks. rubbish almost everywhere. Lecce, in addition to the historic center, is a chaotic city, poorly designed, rude and full of inefficiencies. If you go there as a tourist it's beautiful, if you live there it's disgusting.
