The New York Times voted Puglia and Basilicata two of southern Italy's most up-and-coming destinations - and rightly so. This region burgeons with huge summer music gigs, unspoilt market towns and rural life. Dance the taranta till dawn, indulge in bizarre pagan festivals, go hiking in the Pollino Park and savour those sun-ripened southern tomatoes.
