Italy Strada dei cappelli (hats' street)
The street is famous for the many hats hanging above the road, with the white trulli houses in the background.
Photography Tips
Bring a wide to medium angle to capture the whole street + I would recommend a telephoto lens to capture some details (hats, cactuses, etc) for storytelling.
Definitely come at sunrise, as there is not a lot of people in the street. Most people go on the other side for the trulli, so take advantage of that :) Also in the early morning the fairy lights are still on.

Travel Information
From Bari, it is around 1 hour by car to Alberobello. You cannot drive directly to the spot because the main trulli areas have traffic restrictions. You can park at the parking pin, it's a paid option, or you can park outside the city if you want to search for a free option. There aren't so many because most of the area is near the UNESCO site and parking is quite limited.
