NURAGHE MOTHER
Read moreAt the top of a hill, opposite Gorropu Gorge, stands the "white" nursery. Its unique color stems from the quality of the stone used, the white limestone. At its side, limestone huts attest to the presence of a former village. The Mereu nursery is not only famous for its tholos (faux dome) in perfect condition but also for its exceptional situation. It overlooks Gorropu Gorge, Europe's deepest canyon, and dominates the Sas Baddes Forest, one of the most recent primary forests in the Mediterranean basin.

COLUMN OF CARLOFORTE
Read moreAt 20 meters from the coast, two rocky columns of purplish red trachyte emerge from the water and seem to watch over the small island of San Pietro. These two stone look-outs scan the horizon as far as the shores of Tunisia, the nearest land. The inhabitants have made them the symbol of their island, the most representative element that appears on tourist brochures. It is very easy to reach, just take the marked path from La Bobba beach. While the cliffside walk is pleasant, its purpose leaves a moderate impression.

MINIERA DI MONTEVECCHIO
Read moreBefore becoming one of the most productive mining sites in Europe between 1850 and 1960, the Montevecchio region was already known for its wealth of lead and zinc. The Romans and Carthaginians were already mining these metals west of Ingurtosu. The Romans mined the rock in tiny galleries. The Carthaginians would heat it and then freeze it and break it up. In the 13th and 14th centuries, the rate of extraction was increased by the Pisans and Aragonese. Around the year 1850, the Sardinian entrepreneur Giovanni Antonio Sanna obtained from the King of Sardinia the right to exploit the site, where he had a village built for the miners. The miners and their families were paid with a currency that could only be used in the shops and bars of the village, so they remained slaves of their bosses. The men work in the underground galleries, their wives break the rocks and separate the powders from the metals outside. Children also work with their parents, without pay or any form of social security. When the Piemontese Anglosarda company obtained the management of the site, production increased enormously, especially during the two wars, with a pressing demand for materials. In the 1960s, the Montevecchio mines became increasingly expensive to operate and their activity ceased definitively at the beginning of the 1990s. The former miners who worked there are now tourist guides who lead visitors through the mining galleries.
