Around the World in Eighty Days. Brindisi: the Gateway to the Adriatic

What do you know about the Italian city of Brindisi? It started as an ancient Greek settlement and developed into an important port town. It’s also where Phileas Fogg arrived before heading on to Suez. With its beautiful harbor, Brindisi is a true gateway to the Adriatic Sea, which we are going to enter today.
