Sardinia ( Sardegna ). A Voyage To Sardinia, Italy, Europe - Cagliari, Sassari, Carbonia, Nuoro, Oristano, Iglesias...














Located closer to Africa than Italy, Sardinia’s turquoise body of body of water as well as white sandy beaches contender the tropics. Sant'Antioco & San Pietro, off the coast of Southwestern Sardinia, are charming islands as yet unspoiled yesteryear as good much tourist development. The seaside resort of Santa Teresa di Gallura offers all the attractions of the coast without the sometimes-soulless glitz of the Costa Smeralda. Further east, Palau & Arcipelago di la Maddalena are pretty laidback, too: the archipelago itself comprises a national green alongside loads of island-hopping opportunities.
Away from the coast, the scenery tin live on similarly stunning alongside a pastoral quilt of forested mount peaks, valleys of citrus groves as well as pastures of happily grazing cattle as well as sheep. In contrast, the urban scene tin live on disappointing.
Some towns are, frankly, wearisome as well as depressing alongside breeze-block buildings as well as graffiti. Others, similar medieval Bosa inward the west, are impossibly picturesque alongside their pink-and-golden buildings flanking the river. Alghero, inward Northern Sardinia, has a fascinating Catalan history (the linguistic communication is nevertheless spoken here) as well as a delightful former centre; the lively town of Iglesias also retains an appealing Castilian legacy. Calgliari is historic as well as cosmopolitan at the same time, spell the every bit historic Oristano is quietly elegant.

Traditional civilization thrives most vigorously inward the heartland where the elderly women are nevertheless draped inward black; hither tourists are rare – stared at – only ultimately welcomed.
Across the landscape are scattered 7000 nuraghi, strange conical rock fortresses seemingly built yesteryear a Sardinian Fred Flintstone. Curious temples, tombs, mysterious menhirs as well as remains of entire Bronze Age villages consummate the prehistoric cartoon.
Sardinia distinguishes itself inward the kitchen alongside hearty pastas as well as a love for pungent local cheeses, similar pecorino and smoked ricotta. Sardinians also hit notable wines as well as a head-splitting firewater, filu e ferru.
Avoid visiting during broiling, crowded July as well as August, as good as inward wintertime when the isle goes into hibernation as well as many restaurants as well as hotels are closed. The best times of the twelvemonth to see are inward the spring, when the wildflowers are inward bloom, as well as during the early on tumble when the temperatures are nevertheless pleasantly warm as well as most of the tourists convey left.Show inward Lonely Planet
