Cagliari Walking Tour - Roman and Medieval History in the City

Cagliari and Sardinia were dominated by the Romans for seven Centuries, and they left lots of proofs of their magnificence all over the island. I will take you to a walking tour through the old city, visiting first the astounding site of Sant'Eulalia, where I can let you imagine how life was in the Roman times. Do not be afraid to explore with me the crypt of the Church of the Santo Sepolcro, where I will tell you its scary history. In the nerby crypt of Santa Restituta (a sacred Roman site ) I will tell you how my family and the inhabitants of the district used it as a shelter from the bombing of the WW2. We walk up to the Botanical Gardens to walk amid the luxurious vegetation, where we can see a Roman quarry and an impressive cistern. We then arrive at the Roman Amphitheatre, and I will describe you its gory shows during the Roman time. In the last part of the excursion, on our way back downhill, we visit the Medieval district of Castello with the Medieval towers and the Romanesque cathedral. Ajò !
