What travelers say:

Baroque Southern Palace Santa Cross Temple is known for its gorgeousness in most of the Baroque architecture in the world. The Santa Cross Temple in Lecce is a typical baroque architecture with extreme luxury. Its construction time is two centuries ago, back and forth, from the time span of its luxury and exquisite. The front side of the architectural style hall uses simple but gorgeous patterned carving art and exquisite carving skills. The most worth mentioning is the round column supporting the hall. On the walls, exquisite patterns circled, and the eaves carved plots of totem characters, animals, plants and even mythological stories. Looking at the wonderful depictions of the details of the pattern, you can see the complexity of the pattern, which fully demonstrates the amazing skills of the Baroque sculpture artist at the time. The second floor has a huge rose-shaped window, bright in color, like a layer of gold edge. When the weather is fine, the sun shines in from the window and casts a reflection of roses on the ground. Shopping Lecce is an ancient city in Italy, the city is not big, but it has the reputation of "South Florence". Lecce stone is a limestone specialty of Lecce. In many shops in Lecce City, you can buy exquisite crafts carved in Lecce stone, most of them are quite Baroque.
