The Valley welcomes visitors with expanse of olive groves, orchards and vineyards that produce typical wines such as "Bianco Martina" and "Bianco Doc Locorotondo". The valley is a succession of unique color effects, a festivity of colors ranging from the greenery of oak forests to secular olive trees and vineyards, white trulli and farmhouses to the "red earth" of the countryside.

The landscape of the Itria Valley is particularly singular and recognizable and represents the result of a wise integration between the natural, natural and physical components.

The "Itria" landmark could derive from the oriental cult of Madonna Odegitria (meaning the way) imported by the Basilian monks who settled in 977 in the territory from the territories of the Eastern Roman Empire.
