Hotels on Sardinia Island |
|
| Sardinia (Italian:
Sardegna; Sardinian: Sardigna or Sardinna) is the second-largest island
in the Mediterranean Sea (after Sicily). The area of Sardinia is 9,300
sq. miles. The island lies between Italy, Spain, and Tunisia, south of
Corsica; under the Italian Constitution it is one of the autonomous regions
with special statute. |
 |
| At the beginning of the
nuragic age circa 1500 BC the island was first called Hyknusa (Latinized
Ichnusa) by the Mycenaeans probably meaning island (nusa) of the Hyksos,
the people who had just been expelled by Ahmose I of Egypt circa 1540 BC.
Sandalyon was its second name, probably due to its shape, recalling a footprint.
Last and present name has been Sardinia, for the Shardana (whose invasion
on Egypt was defeated by Ramesses III circa 1180 BC). |
| The island contains numerous
extraordinary tourist areas, including the Costa Smeralda and Gennargentu.
The island is particularly famous for its beaches, but is also rich in
other interesting places, such as some charming sea towns and archaeological
ruins. |

Cagliari Hotels, Sardinia |
Top
|
| Cagliari
is the capital of the island of Sardinia, a region of Italy. Cagliari's
Sardinian name Casteddu literally means the castle. It has about 160,000
inhabitants, or about 350,000 including the suburbs (metropolitan area)
(Elmas, Selargius, Monserrato, Quartucciu, Quartu Sant'Elena). The old
part of the city (called Castello, the castle) lies on top of a hill, with
a wonderful view of the Gulf of Cagliari (also known as Angels Gulf). Most
of its city walls are intact, and feature the two 13th century white lime-stone
towers, St. Pancras tower and the Elephant tower. The local white lime-stone
was also used to build the walls of the city and many builidings. D.H.
Lawrence, in his lively memoir of a voyage to Sardinia, Sea and Sardinia,
undertaken in January 1921, described the effect of the warm Mediterranean
sun-light on the white lime-stone city and compared Cagliari to a "white
Jerusalem". The Cathedral was restored in the 1930s turning the former
Baroque façade into a Medieval Pisan style façade, more akin
to the original appearance of the church. The bell tower is original. The
interior has a nave and two aisles, with a pulpit (1159-1162)[1] sculpted
for the Cathedral of Pisa but later donated to Cagliari. The crypt houses
the remains of martyrs found in the Basilica of San Saturno (see below).
Near the Cathedral is the palace of the Provincial Government (which used
to be the island's governor's palace before 1900). In Castello is also
the Sardinian Archaeological Museum, the biggest and most important regarding
the prehistoric Nuragic civilisation of Sardinia. Finally, Castello hosts
many craftsmen workshops in its tightened and scenic lanes. |
|
| The Basilica
of San Saturnino is one of the most important Palaeo-Christian monuments
in Sardinia. Dedicated to the martyr killed under Diocletian's reign, it
was built in the 5th century. Of the original building the central part
remain and the dome, to which two armes (one with a nave and two aisles)
was added. A Palaeo-Christian crypt is also under the church of San Lucifero
(1660). This has a Baroque façade with ancient columns and sculpted
parts, some of which found in the nearby necropolis. The Sanctuary of Our
Lady of Bonaria was built by the Aragonese in 1324-1329 during the siege
to the Castle in which the Pisan had took shelter. It has a small Gothic
portal in the façade and in the interior houses a wooden statue
of the Madonna, which was thrown off by a Spanish ship and landed at the
feet of the Bonaria hill. The cloister of the convent is home to the Marinery
Museum. Read more on Wikipedia |
