Discovering Sardinia

One of the greatest and still unsolved mysteries of Sardinia are nuragi, or stone fortified towers . The buildings have the shape of a truncated cone, made of hewn rock blocks, arranged without mortar. There are about 7,000 nuraghes on the island, some of them reaching a height of 20 m. The best-preserved tower (Su Nuraxi) has been inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Nuragi were created by the Nuragic civilization in the years 1800-500 BC. Animal trophies and geometric patterns discovered in them may testify to the religious purpose of the building and the place of sacrifice.

Lovers of unusual places will also find many mysterious caves in Sardinia. There are over 3,300 of them on the island. The Grotto of Neptune , located near Alghero, is considered the most beautiful cave. Its age is estimated at over 130 million years. This extraordinary cave delights with its length (over 4 km), water sparkling with various colors and fairy-tale rock forms. You can get to the grotto by stairs with 656 steps. This is called Escala del Cabirol or by sea.
