This stunning, white-limestone church was constructed between 1087 and 1197 and has always held the remains of San Nicola (who is also known as Santa Klaus). It is both a Catholic and an Orthodox church and, partly for this reason, it is a place of annual pilgrimage for many people from all over the world.

The extraordinary Old City of Bari largely consists of narrow and winding streets, making it a charming place to stroll around. You'll find all the important medieval monuments, such as the Swabian Castle and many churches, including the Cathedral of San Sabino and the Basilica of San Nicola, as well as plenty of bars and restaurants.

In the heart of Chiang Mai lies Wat Chedi Luang, a massive, ancient Buddhist temple, dating back to the 14th century. It boasts a towering chedi (stupa) that once soared to greater heights before succumbing to an earthquake in 1545.

As the sun casts golden hues upon its weathered stones, visitors are transported to a bygone era, where whispers of history and spirituality intertwine, leaving an indelible impression on all who wander its sacred grounds.
