Corato (ba) villa viale capra fatua

The area sits on the Murge plateau, with open limestone farmland, olive groves and vineyards around the town. Alta Murgia National Park lies nearby, with karst ground, steppe grassland and shallow ravines typical of the inland Barese uplands. Castel del Monte is within this area, the octagonal Frederick II castle protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The nearest larger urban centre is Andria, with full services and a substantial historic core; Bari is the main city for higher-level services and transport but is farther away. This part of northern Puglia is known for olive oil and wine production, especially Nero di Troia.
