The city of Bari is known for being the city where the relics of St. Nicholas rest. This condition has made Bari and its basilica one of the favorite centers of the Orthodox Church in the West and also an important center of interreligious communication between Orthodoxy and Catholicism.
Bari has a solid mercantile - entrepreneurial tradition and has always been a nerve center in the field of trade and political-cultural contacts with Eastern Europe and the Middle East. Its port is the largest passenger port of the Adriatic Sea. Since 1930 the Fiera del Levante has been held in Bari, one of the main trade fairs in Italy. More recently, the city became the seat of the secretariat for the Pan-European Corridor 8.
