Ostuni is a city and comune in the province of Brindisi (Apulia, Italy), with a population of about 32,000 located about 8 km from the coast. Its main economic activities include tourism, attracted by its nearby pristine beaches, historical architecture in the city and its surroundings. The so-called "Old Town" is Ostuni's citadel built on top of a hill and still fortified by the ancient walls. Ostuni is regarded as an architectural jewel, and is commonly referred to as "the White Town" ("La Cittianca", in Italian) for its white walls and its typically white-painted architecture. It is one of the most beautiful and famous towns in Puglia. Its unique historic town, its monuments, its baroque-style churches, are examples of the great architecture and culture that characterizes this part of South Italy. Ostuni is the fifth city in Italy known for the percentage of British people residents
