The initiative promoted by the Municipality of Andria, Department of Roots, organized together with Confcommercio, was designed as a three-day narrative of the territory, which from visits to companies, through convivial moments and outdoor tours can give back to readers from overseas, through the experience that Cesare Zucca will live, a cross-section of the tourist-cultural offer available to those who want to visit this part of Puglia.
The program includes the arrival and welcome of Cesare Zucca on Tuesday 21 May with a lunch and then immediately a visit to an oil mill and a winery, then dinner in a farm in the Murgia, among dry stone walls and olive trees. On May 22nd we start again from a taralli factory, a guided tour of the city, a workshop on the art of Trenocelle, lunch break and then again in the afternoon the arrival at another oil company and the Confetti Museum, before dinner in the center historical. The three days ends on May 23rd with a walk in Castel del Monte and the Mediana della Murgia, a visit to a dairy farm in Andria and to a farm in Montegrosso, in the late afternoon, before the grand finale, a sweet interlude with the laboratory of the Pastrotto. The farewell to Cesare Zucca will be with a show cooking in a restaurant, exclusively based on typical local products.
«By hosting Cesare Zucca in our city we want to win over an ever-increasing number of tourists from abroad. Considering the fact that we are seeing that our city is the one with the greatest tourist attraction in the Bat territory and in the belief that administrators must govern the processes, we are constantly working to encourage this trend and definitively consecrate the Andria brand in the Olympus of destinations not to be missed when you arrive in Puglia”, explains the Radici municipal councilor, Cesare Troia.
«We will accompany Cesare Zucca in this discovery so that he can tell all the best that this land is capable of expressing, from every point of view – adds Claudio Sinisi, president of Confcommercio Andria – from the warmth of the people both those who experience the historic center and those who lives the rural areas, to the creativity of the entrepreneurs who animate the local productive fabric, enhancing with their effort what is beautiful and good this area already offers. Thanks to them for immediately making themselves available for this initiative too.”
