Open Air Theatre of Piazza Asti

This open-air theatre sits right in the heart of Lecce's old town on Piazza Sant'Oronzo, built into a Roman amphitheatre dating back to the 1st–2nd century AD. What makes it truly wild is that the whole thing was hidden underground until relatively recently — the ancient city of Lupiae buried beneath the modern city. Catching a performance here, with centuries of history literally surrounding you, is something you won't forget.
