Caprarica di Lecce is located between Ionian and Adriatic Sea<\/strong>, in the middle of Southern Puglia, near to Grec\u00eca Salentina. It is a symbol of Salento land, since it is the birthplace of green gold: extra virgin olive oil. In fact, oil production is the main agricultural activity, thanks to wide centuries-old olive trees expanses.<\/p>\nAnother peculiarity in Caprarica di Lecce is represented by \u201cpajare\u201d, ancient structures realised with dry stone and used by peasants for a rest. A wonderful example is the one in the middle of Masseria Rifisa, perfectly preserved and nowadays used as reception.<\/p>\n
Caprarica di Lecce has a little hill called \u201cSerra\u201d and from its top is possible to admire Grecia Salentina countryside.<\/p>\n

What is Salento Greece<\/h2>\n
Grec\u00eca Salentina is an area where people still speak \u201cGriko\u201d, a dialect derived from Greek. It includes nine municipalities belonging to Lecce district.<\/p>\n
Since 2007, three municipalities joined Grec\u00eca Salentina. There are twelve municipalities currently: Corigliano d\u2019Otranto, Soleto, Sternatia, Zollino, Martignano, Melpignano, Martano, Carpignano salentino, Cutrofiano, Castrignano de\u2019 Greci, Sogliano Cavour. They are linked thanks to cultural and linguistic similarities.<\/p>\n

\u201cLa Notte della Taranta\u201d: a symbolic event in Grec\u00eca Salentina<\/h2>\n
An event joining all Grec\u00eca Salentina municipalities is \u201cla Notte della Taranta\u201d (literally \u201ctarantula night\u201d, named after a particular spider in Salento). It is the greatest music festival promoting \u201cpizzica\u201d, a type of music spread in Salento, used during an ancient ritual made to take care of people suffering imaginary taranta bite, a dangerous poisonous spider.<\/p>\n
