 Steven and Tom Visit Bari, Italy

Bari, Italy is a port on the Adriatic Sea. The Romans called it Barium. Bari's old city holds a 12th-century Romanesque cathedral, a Norman castle, and the Basilica of San Nicola which houses the relics of their patron saint. The people of Bari literally invaded Turkey to steal the bodily remains of Saint Nicholas. Bari has been inhabited since 1500 B.C.by Greeks, Romans, Saracens, Normand and Italians. Bari's cuisine is based on agricultural products within Apulia: wheat, olive oil and wine. Photography by Steven Skelley and Thomas Routzong. Sunny Harbor Publishing.
