Giardino botanico con chalet

The cluster is in the built-up area of Andria, so the lived setting is urban fabric on the Murge plateau rather than open countryside. Castel del Monte stands within about 15 km to the south-west on an isolated limestone hill and is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The Alta Murgia landscape begins in this direction, with karst pasture, cereal fields and rocky ground typical of the Murge; the protected area is Alta Murgia National Park. The nearest sea is the Adriatic coast around Barletta and Trani, but it is outside the immediate 15 km landscape. The area is known for olive groves, vineyards and Castel del Monte wine.
