Brindisi is a city in the Puglia region, in Southern Italy, capital of the province of the same name, on the coast of the Adriatic Sea. Historically, the city has played an important role in trade and culture, thanks to its strategic location on the Italian peninsula and its natural harbor on the Adriatic Sea. The city remains an important port for trade with Greece and the Middle East. The historic center of this important seaside city in Southern Italy is a continuum of religious buildings in the Romanesque style.
By combining its cultural heritage, natural beauty, and a commitment to sustainable practices, Brindisi can position itself as a destination that appeals to environmentally conscious tourists while preserving its rich culture and history for future generations. Collaboration between the government, local businesses, and the community will be crucial in making this vision a reality.
In general, local institutions intend to promote sustainable development of the local economy. This involves a development plan that specifically engages various sectors (agro-forestry heritage, wood supply chain, water resources, renewable energy, sustainable tourism, architectural heritage, energy efficiency, smart integration of systems and networks, zero-waste production, mobility services, sustainable agriculture).
The sustainable tours outlined in the project include 5 spots that will show different aspects of the innovation available to each local citizen or tourist.
The spots are distributed quite evenly throughout the territory. We will start from Palazzo Guerrieri, to take a tour through the streets of the historic center, crossing 2 other spots.
Specifically, these 2 spots are quite close to each other, while two others (C.A.G. Youth Aggregation Center and Buscicchio Park) are in more peripheral areas, to be able to guarantee inclusiveness also to the population living on the outskirts of the city. The total journey takes approximately a total of 2 hours and 13 minutes on foot.
