The 40 best neighborhoods to see in Cagliari

Beautiful scene, blue sea coast!😍It was lovely beach coast, nice walk. Can be windy, the water is not warm at all, bit fir me was nice from Ireland :)) Can hire 2sunbeds+umbrella for 24euro. Nice snacks, bats and beers on the beach all along. Friendly ppl. Revommend to visit.

Just a very busy beach with big crowds sections where you pay to stay or free of charge. Very long and nice sand.

Beautiful and huge beach. Safe enough, perfect if you have kids sandy and quiet water.. almost no waves.. There is plenty of free parking spot + free bathroom and showers.

Beautiful clean beach. Relaxed atmosphere and lovely people. Its gorgeous

Poetto is a 8km long beach with easy access by public transport, very nice and clean, calm water, amazing for kids, with restaurants along the beach. I found a small stretch of beach with family atmosphere. It's a great opportunity to enjoy a beach day if you are in Cagliari.

Super beautiful and clear water. Lots of people, but that’s understandable. Really recommended, I would totally go again.

Warm water with kids activities! The water is shallow for a good way out. Our family had a great time!

This was a cool stop I walked to from the cruise port, it was uphill the entire time but the views were pretty cool. There are many stairs to get to the top, and once you get there there are several benches and some trees. Unfortunately none of the benches had shade.

One more bastion. Built in the late 19th century on the ancient city walls. Connects the lower city to the historic Castello district. From the top, enjoy stunning panoramic views over the city, port, and sea. A perfect spot to relax and take photos.

It's a beautiful old structure with wonderful panoramic views of the city once you climb the elegant staircase. Just be warned it can be swarming with tourists taking Insta photos and TikTok videos which can detract from the experience. Don't forget to open your eyes and drink it all in ❤️

Nice view, you can buy umbrellas or hats from vendors there. I recommend not going in sunny weather and during the lunch hours as it is very hot.

The view is astonishing. It is very close to the city center with good restaurants and coffee houses. Free access to the top – a must-visit if you are already in Cagliari.

We went for the evening walk around this place and we quite liked it. There was life music, not that many people. Beautiful place.

Bastione di Saint Remy is a beautiful and historic landmark offering stunning views over Cagliari. It’s a great spot for photos, relaxing, and soaking in the local atmosphere. The architecture and terrace are impressive, especially at sunset. However, accessibility can be an issue—there’s only one elevator, which often means long waits. If you’re traveling with kids or strollers, be prepared for some inconvenience, especially during busy times. Still, it’s worth the visit.

Very nice and cool place. Some animals, clean paths, stunning views from the top, free car park along the street, free clean toilets in the middle of the park.

If you're visiting Cagliari and seeking a picturesque and serene escape, look no further than Parco di Monte Urpinu! This park is an incredible afternoon experience, particularly in the spring when the lush greenery, blooming flowers, and enchanting water features create a true haven. Parco di Monte Urpinu offers something for everyone. Families with children will find various areas specifically designed for their enjoyment, while those without kids can still appreciate the park's beauty and tranquility. The well-kept paths and ample seating in the form of benches provide the perfect setting for a leisurely stroll or a quiet moment of reflection. Animal lovers, rejoice! This park is incredibly dog-friendly, so feel free to bring your furry friend along. But it's not just dogs that call Parco di Monte Urpinu home – the local wildlife is a true spectacle. The lake teems with friendly ducks and turtles that will practically eat out of your hand, making for a delightful and memorable encounter. While there are colonies of feral cats roaming around the park that may appear intimidating, rest assured they don't cause any trouble. However, the real stars of Parco di Monte Urpinu are the majestic peacocks that freely wander the grounds. These beautiful creatures allow visitors to get remarkably close for photographs, but remember, they are still wild animals and should not be touched. In summary, Parco di Monte Urpinu is a must-visit destination in Cagliari. Its beautiful landscapes, abundant wildlife, and family-friendly atmosphere make for a perfect afternoon outing. Don't miss out on the opportunity to experience this hidden gem – you won't be disappointed!

Amazing park! Best to go with children! Lots of room to run around and play. Many playgrounds. You will meet all kinds of animals that are super friendly and let you go really near. There is a really quiet easy walk to the top of the hill. It has beautiful views to the city. It’s a good idea to spend the sunset there!

The bird’s eye view of Cagliari. You can reach this spot easily by car, a short drive up to a top of a hill where you can see both sides of Cagliari. I happen to be there and witnessed an amazing sunset. Just sit there and enjoy the mesmerising view of the city. Quiet and nice wind felt refreshing.

I am in live with this garden I love how the animals can freely walk next to us The variety of the species is impressive The garden is huge Perfect for when you need to spend some time alone in the nature or even to meet friends Ideal for a morning or afternoon jog Not crowded at all

It is a must if you are in Cagliari! Lovely and relaxing park. It is very big so you shouldn't have any problem with finding a spot for yourself. At the road there is nice spot where you can watch the city from above with a panoramic view.

Wonderful park to enjoy some time with (very loud) peacocks, all kinds of birds and other animals. Great for kids and adults alike.

The market moved to a different location, its still open. Prices are hit and miss, depending on the stall, produce is very fresh though. Everything seems to be local

Absolutely lovely experience! We went twice during our 5-day visit. Such a variety of fish, seafood, cheeses, sausages, fruit, vegetables, meat, salami, antipasti, bottarga, honey, jams, etc. Walking through the aisles and pick products for you lunch, dinner or snacks is a fine Sardinian experience. We loved it and also had the best coffee in our entire lives! Fishermen open up oysters for you and you can eat them right there, that's what we did. It is a must-visit while in Cagliari! 😃

Amazing market full of fresh seafood, produce, baked goods, meat, and cheese!

The building is closed so there’s some algeco instead. Not the best experience to stroll but very good food

Logically organized into category sectionw and super clean with none of the blood, guts, shouts and smells that deter marketphobes in southern Europe. It's calm Sardi after all. Currently at a temporary location 200m from main market hall which is under refit.

Great place to experience the best local produce of Cagliari.

Fresh bread, fruits, vegetables, meat and great pastries, nice local market. If you want to buy bread here go early, most is sold out at 11.00 in the morning. Watch out where you buy meat because they also sell Rabbit and horsemeat.

Beautiful place to walk and watch the sunset

Great place to unwind, scenic, calm and natural

Great service, such a positive atmosphere, and great located, perfect place to have breakfast, lunch with family or friends..

Beautiful Marina with nice paved path for walking and separate path for bicycles. Lots of benches to rest.

Su Siccu is very nice for a walk coming from the port of Cagliari, a visit to the Bonaria Church (nice view of the sea) and - in winter until the end of April - to taste sea urchins even with pasta...

One of the most beautiful spots in the city of Cagliari. I love walking on the waterfront.

Nice place to enjoy park and see and do sport

We visited a park known for its flamingos. Be aware that there's absolutely no shade, and the walk under the sun can be quite long. You can also do the route by bike, depending on your preference. We took the shorter trail and it still took us almost two hours. I highly recommend bringing plenty of water and a hat, as there are no refreshment options along the way. The flamingos can only be seen from a distance. If we had been better prepared for the sun, it would have been a beautiful walk (or ride) along the river or canal and past salt basins. But I guess I was expecting a bit more from the experience.

We rented 2 push bikes for an independent tour. No guides. You can rent them for 2 hours for a nominal fee. It's free to walk. Bus tours are available. Takes you to some restricted areas. Friendly staff and helpful. Best to take water and a hat. It was warm and exposed but breezy. The office has a little coffee shop and toilet facilites. Beautiful and quite scenic. Very few Flamingos were left in the colony as they have started their migratory journey. We were lucky to have spotted a few Flamingos across the parking lot before entering the park. They were mostly white with a little toycb of flamingo 🦩 pink on their wings. We visited end of Aug. I believe best would be to go during summer. It was still worth the visit. We would go again as we enjoyed the bike ride along the scenic sea salt harvesting ponds and so many other birds and turtles etc.

We were looking forward to seeing flamingos. We could see flocks on our way from the airport and expected to see many more and from smaller distance. We were seated on a small electric van with 10 seats. Each participant was given a binocular and a large one was carried and installed by our guide. Unfortunately, her English was very poor. That was surely a pity because she alternated Italian and English explanations and she passionately said so much in Italian (we couldn't understand) and very little in English. Seeing birds in binoculars was exciting. I recommend buying tickets online as on the first occasion we got here there were no places left and we had zo leave ... Still I am not sure if it was worth 25 euros/person. We drove mostly in publicly accessible places. Probably I would recommend renting bikes and binoculars.

Flamingos!!:-)) Very kind staff, great English, you can visit for free and see flamingos, you can also rent a bike for 10€/2hours. There was also a bus / guided option i think. I did the free visit by foot which was easily walkable. And after five minutes I already saw many flamingos 🦩 🥰 great experience! Remember to bring a hat and a bottle of water if you go during the hotter season. Inside the info point there’s also a cafe with very friendly staff, coffee, coke etc and even pistachio croissants!🥐 :-) 100% recommend if you want to see flamingos in their Cagliari habitat of salinas :-)

It is really spacious area. People ride on the bikes, walk, children play football etc. I used a free car park nearby. Also there is possible to watch the flamingos 🦩 and feed donkeys 🫏

Beautiful park, very clean and well maintained. Can be a little confusing to navigate within the park as there are few signs. Clean bathrooms and a cafe at the visitors center.

This park is the biggest disappointment ever! Don't go there, it is waste of time and energy. Map at the entrance is very missleading. Many routes are closed and from view points you have view to bushes... There is only one point from which flamingos are visible but there are very far away. Photos here on google seem like you are going to be next to flamingo, but there were simply done with good photocamera...

Very small castle located on the highest part of Cagliari. The walk up to the castle is a KILLER, and there is no shade at all or someplace to sit, so if visiting during spring/summer, water is a necessity. I would suggest going by car as there is a parking area just a few meters away. Having said all that, the view up the hill is marvellous. The castle itself is very small, and it showcases life during variois periods, especially what people used to wear along the centuries.

Castle is on the top of the almost tree-less hill / dont take the hike in the middle of sunny day! ;) The views are top and the walk from the bus took us around 20mins to the top including taking pictures. The castle entrance fee was 4E and additional 2E for guide. Our guy was David - and the be honest without the guide it is pointless to go there, since all descriptions are in italian (unless you speak italian of course). We enjoyed the visit and many interesting information about the castle and sardinia itself. The building is not that big, so dont expect like huge fortress or so.

There is nothing to see inside at this time. Almost all exhibits are covered. It's not even worth the 4€ per visit. The surroundings and the outside are beautiful. You don't have to pay for it.

A beautiful overlook, generally used as a local social center.

Beautiful castle with beautiful views! You can walk up from the car park. There’s a cafe near the castle too for refreshments!

A small medieval castle on a hilltop, amazing views. A must place to visit for castle lovers. A hidden gem that most tourists probably don't know evwn exists. It's a bit outside the city centre, but you can get here by bus. There is no shade, so dress accordingly and bring water if you come in the summer months (and can be very windy in wintertime...)

Do not go inside! €4 entry fee and absolutely nothing inside. No exhibits. No displays. Shocking. Just walk outside for the pictures and the views.

Hiking Sella del Diavolo this summer was an unforgettable experience. From the start, the salty sea breeze and the scent of wild herbs set the mood for adventure. The trail, though a bit challenging under the sun, was worth every step. As I climbed higher, the views became more breathtaking—endless turquoise waters, boats dotting the coast, and Cagliari in the distance. Reaching the top felt like standing on the edge of a dream. After the hike, I cooled off in the crystal-clear, warm sea below, a perfect reward. Floating there, gazing up at the cliffs, I felt pure happiness. Sella del Diavolo is a must-visit—a place where nature’s beauty leaves you speechless. If you're in Sardinia, don’t miss it!

Nice and not so difficult walk but amazing view point

Even ideal for an late afternoon run A nice promenade to the nearby sleeping lady mountain range. There is no official path to reach the peak, as the military base blocks the entire northern side. But following locals late afternoon, there are few wild path to lead you to the Sela del Diavolo, one of the ruins on this hill range. Searching for a path to reach to the peak, which seem to be the “official” hiking route, turned out to be non-existent. Ventured along the miliary base where I found a wild narrow path thru the forest to reach the top stone plateau. Fabulous view, 360 degrees … with some left over Roman Ruins and the famous nuraghe buildings, main type of ancient megalithic accommodation / towers dating back to the Nuragic Age between 1900 to 730 BC. Don’t miss to crowl thru some spikey cactuses to reach the chalk-cave, called Sella del Diavolo. There are approximately 7,000 nuraghes left in Sardinia today. Turning time back 4,000 years ago amongst such a scenery is truly a unique experience. The official path, flatter and easier-to-walk path, is leading to the Calamosca Beach. It was a Sunday, so the Disco tunes and party was on early afternoon till late night. Long queues, traffic jam and many happy party-lovers. Walking back to the Poetto beach took like 4 – 5 km … definitely a detour, but no other choice, unless driving by motorcycle or car.

Absolutely amazing place... just 20 minutes easy climbing from Calamosca side. Beautiful view, fresh air and feeling of history... 100% to visit! P.s. from the top i cant see the tiburones...

Amazing views on this 4.1km loop hike, worth the effort. Some moderately challenging sections on the full loop, but the zig zag trail section is more straight forward. Many exposed sections of high cliff along loop trail at eastern side so caution is required.

Incredible view! You must visit this place if you are in Cagliari! On sundays there is a bus (number 5/11) comes here very frequent from Cagliari center. The hike is medium level about 30-40min to reach the top. It totaly worths!

We went there early morning to have a walk and there were not so many people. It is a peaceful and relaxing place where you can spend some time away from the city but not too far away. Reaching the top was the best part where you get a panoramic view of Poetto lungo mare and some part of Cagliari, part of the Cala Mosca on the right. The climb was not too steep and there are some tables and a covered structure (like a concrete cottage) where you can have a picnic located on the top.

This is an amazing gem in Cagliari. The prices are honest. The rooms are super clean. They provide everything. The place is 15 minutes walk to Piazza Yenne during the day whilst a park which is a cut through is open. During the night is a 25 minutes walk back. I think it’s in a great location. Fabio was over the top with his service, always ensuring everything is perfect and always asking if something is needed and if everything is okay. They provide cleaning service for every day and there is free WiFi. I highly recommend this, I would give this place 10/10 or higher if I could. Thank you for making this holiday great, I really appreciate it.

Good clean modern room Fabio was helpful for shared kitchen and out door terrace. Next to University parking was a nightmare as there was a concert maybe only happening once a year not sure but ask about it.. Couldn't find parking for an hour. Will stay again and already booked to stay at end of trip

I am really surprised about this place! This is the best of the best place in Sardinia, why? The Staff is responsible and respectful! Cleaning amazing! Parking space is near the hotel. The wonderful park with outdoor gym near the hotel. 15-20 minutes away and you are in center, for sure if you rent a car it will be more comfortable. I also like a style that place is a modern, convenient rapid fashion. Electronic locks was 👍 forgot about keys. Thanks Fabio and others personal for my vacation 🤗🤗🤗 hopefully I will come again

Has a really well equipped kitchen and is an exceptionally friendly establishment. The bathroom and bedroom are kept immaculate, and I thoroughly enjoyed my two nights stay here. I would definitely recommend to any fellow travellers

This accomodation is very good. I highly recommend it. The room was modern, clean and comfortable. Good location - some main bus line in nearby. Fabio the owner is also very kind and friendly and helpful. It was a five star experience.

My vacation on Sardegna was amazing right from this place! It was really a great choice, everything starting from the pleasant scent just opening the door to each small detail was working to make my dream come true! Special thanks to administrator Fabio, for caring, helping and advising 🥰

We really liked our stay. Everything in the facility was new and always ready to use. Rooms and common areas are always clean. The all facility member are too kind and supportive.

Nice little museum. We preferred the outdoor spaces

The only part open is the oriental exhibition which mostly showcases weapons. Only 3eur. The views are blocked off because of falling masonry (modern stuff not the ancient stone!). Any other exhibitions are not open, under extensive renovations.

(Translated by Google) The wax museum is fantastic. The anatomical models of the human body are a masterpiece and an invaluable heritage in my opinion. (Original) Il museo delle cere è fantastico. I modelli d'anatomie del corpo umano sono un capo lavoro e un patrimonio secondo il mio parere inestimabile.

(Translated by Google) A splendid museum complex comprising the Wax Museum, the Museum of Siamese Art, the Ethnographic Museum, and the Art Gallery. All these sites are free to visit on the first Sunday of every month. (Original) Splendido complesso di musei comprendente il museo delle cere anatomiche, il museo di arte siamese, il museo etnografico e la pinacoteca.

(Translated by Google) A fascinating museum with archaeological finds of great interest, it tells the story of Sardinia's rich human history. (Original) Museo affascinante e con reperti archeologico di grande interesse, racconto di quanta storia umana ci sia in Sardegna.

(Translated by Google) Worth visiting. At the center of the heart of Cagliari. First Sunday of the month free entry. (Original) Da visitare . Al centro del cuore di Cagliari. Prima domenica del mese ingresso gratuito .

The Torre dell'Elefante (1307) stands on the ramparts of Cagliari (Sardinia), Italy. The tower was built during a period of Pisan domination to defend against the threat of an Aragonese invasion. The tower defended the western entrance to the Quartiere Castello of medieval Cagliari. A retractable draw gate controlled access to the medieval city from the lower town. The sculpture of an elephant to the left of the gate gave the tower its name.

Very interesting structure, historic and quite mesmerizing.

The tower is beautiful but has been temporarily closed for around 2 years, which is a pity. In 2022 was open, but from 2023 they closed it and today it’s the same. Many important tourist attractions in Cagliari are closed for some reason unfortunately..

Interesting tower with history, there are old doors left from 14 century. Could be a information desk with history about the tower

From outside looks interesting, pitty that it was closed, one star minus

Torre dell’Elefante is one of the city’s most iconic landmarks. Climbing to the top rewards you with panoramic views over Cagliari and the sea. A well-preserved medieval tower that connects history, architecture, and breathtaking scenery.

Impressive monumental tower. Sadly it is now closed but the view of it remains impressive!

Very disappointed that such an amazing piece of history isn’t given more attention. The site was undergoing “renovations” when we arrived and this restricted access to the site, however there wasn’t much evidence of renovation, and there wasn’t any clearly defined access paths past where we had to stop, so I don’t know how they would protect the amphitheatre which last tourists visited. The €4 entry fee was very cheap, but you can see everything from outside the fence line, so don’t bother. There needs to be a serious injection of cash into this historical site to protect it and make it more attractive and accessible for tourists.

This place has so much potential but unfortunately it is not well used. The entrance ticket is 3 EUR but it is worth the money because you get as close as possible to the amphitheater. Overall, I sincerely hope that the authorities will implement something to make the place accessible to the general public because it can become very popular with a little bit of investment preserving it

Worth visiting, it is a small ticket price and very little to sea but you get a short history lesson from the ticket seller.

Sadly we didn't have time to go in a look at the exhibition and site. As we were just driving through. But the antiquity of the place was splendid. We parked for free right by it. And there were views from the side. Go up hill and and across to get to the old town. Magnificent views

Unfortunately, people are not allowed to get close or enter the underground areas until further notice as they have been deemed unsafe. But you still must pay for tickets to walk a few feet down a narrow walkway by the ticket booth near the entrance. We were allowed stand by the booth to look and take pictures without purchasing.

The place is in an ok shape but not wonderfully preserved. You can’t go in the ruins, only see them from the top or the bottom. That makes it not worth it to pay the entrance fee, just walk around it.

I went to visit the amphitheatre within the stated opening time, arriving with 30 minutes to spare at 16.30. Unfortunately the staff, who were rude and uncompromising told me that there wasn’t much to see and also that they had closed the till and therefore I could not pay the €3 to walk down a 50 meter path to have a closer look at the ancient amphitheatre. This was despite me travelling there, arriving within the advertised time and for a typical entrance, according to them, lasting about 5 minutes. I would have left long before the closing time. The staff seemed more keen to finish work early than to accommodate visitors to this historic site of Cagliari.

A beautiful palace, a piece of history unexpectedly discovered during the city stroll. Some information about the kings of Sardinia, historical facts make the place quite interesting. We were in summer, it was not busy.

A nice small palace, I love the chandeliers and one of the best view of the city. I was quite surprised that nobody was there. You could see here the new emblem of the Sardinia flag, to be honest I prefer the old version. For only €3 the tickets, deserve the visit. As well is a good thing to do when the city is so hot 🥵

The Palazzo Regio is a highly recommended stop if you’re in Cagliari, especially for those who love history, architecture, and elegant interiors. It’s not just a museum but a living historical site that tells the story of Sardinia’s long and complex past. If you’re already visiting the Cathedral of Santa Maria, the Palazzo Regio is the perfect complement — nearby, visually and culturally connected, and it enriches the experience of the old town.

At only €3 for entry this was a lovely break from the sun. A beautiful palace inside and some good information in English about all the rooms. There are nice clean toilets here for guests too. An interesting visit.

We only had a short time to look around and it was rather busy. But the location, views and history here is simply breathtaking. Id recommend the buggy tour to get up here if you struggle with steep hills. But there are steps to manage also. Fantastic and we can't wait to come back to see and do more.

The building today is the prefecture of Cagliari. From outside it is very attractive. It was once a royal palace and it is possible to visit some of its historical rooms.

The Palazzo Regio in Cagliari, Italy, was the seat of the viceroy of Sardinia in the 14th century. It's currently the Ufficio Territoriale del Governo. The Sardinian flag with the St George's Cross and four heads of Moors flies from a balcony.

A must-visit for anyone interested in ancient history. The museum offers a well-curated journey through prehistoric to Roman times. The highlight is the impressive collection of Nuragic bronze statuettes. Also worth seeing are the Neolithic artifacts, Punic and Roman finds. It is not so big. You will need a little bit more than one and a half hours. Recommend to visit.

It's a well-done museum, not as big as some of the larger cities, but very comprehensive, covering prehistory up until the Middle ages. The ramps and staircases can be a little bit confusing as you start at the most ancient and hopefully end up at the most recent. Currently it is €10.

A lot of history in this museum, must see if you visit Cagliari. 10 eur is the price but worth the money.

Must visit for anyone in Sardinia, to go beyond just the beaches and the food and learn a lot about the history of the island and its people. Not too big, but quite comprehensive museum with some amazing, out of this world monuments from the Nuragic period.

I visited with my family the archeological site of Nora with a guided tour, so beautiful and interesting, and then we found here the ancient objects our guide was telling us about. Also, we went to the archeological site of Tharros for a lyrical concert, and again, we found here the Giants of Tharros. Highly recommended! And the neighborhood is beautiful, too! With nice restaurants and cafes nearby.

Nice museum if you're interested in the history of Sardinia and the Romans. We were there with our children (ages 7 and 9), but that was not appreciated by a very rude female staff member. It was clear that this rude woman did not tolerate children. A real shame, because children are exactly the ones you can teach something about history — but unfortunately, this woman didn’t think so and made that clear by staring at us with wide eyes and constantly following us around. So, if you're going with your children, be warned. If you're not with children, then it's definitely recommended.

’m not really a museum person. Still, on a sunny midday, it’s not a bad idea to slip into a pleasant one – cool air, quiet halls, and treasures of the past: ancient finds, statuettes, sculptures. This museum unfolds across several floors with hidden corners and passages and of course stairs (there are in Cagliari everywhere), so you definitely won’t get bored. And somewhere between the air conditioning and the timeless artifacts, it suddenly becomes clear why Sardinia is such a unique place you won’t find anywhere else in the world.”

Beautiful church, but be aware, as in the rest of Sardegna, opening hours often differ between reality and what's been published online.

Stunning church and lovely guarden in the back with stunning view.. but keep in mind that—like much things in Sardinia—the opening hours don’t always match what you’ll find online.

The origins of this church date back to 1324 in order to offer spiritual assistance to soldiers engaged in the siege of the city. The statue of Virgin Mary is housed in the splendid sanctuary (City Tour Cagliari). The driver of the tour bus was nice enough to slow down so we, tourists can take a good shot of the church.

It looks gorgeous outside, unfortunately I couldn’t go inside because of the funeral

Very nice and amazing place - you can find here a tranquility. We were here alone and visited both churches - both of them are beautiful and full of faith.

Cemetery is closed for visits. Not opening any more.

Simply stunning

The site is disappointing as a historical attraction. While the green areas are well maintained and it’s nice for a short walk, the archaeological site itself is neglected. Some paths are closed, there is no information about the history, and it feels more like a park for dog walking than a place of cultural importance. A treasure like this deserves much better care and attention.

Free with no wait. Hot and very little shade when we visited in June. Interesting how deep burial holes were crafted through solid rock. Updated signs can be easily read. Bring water. Bathrooms on site have potable water.

A culturally interesting place. It also has a nice view of the city being on top of a hill. It is vast and we couldn't visit a portion because the path was being repaired. Its free and only take 30mins-1 hour to walk around. We parked on the street by the entrance. There are lots of benches to sit on for a rest and there are clean toilets by the entrance.

There is so much history behind this unique place that is free of charge and worth the visit as it has a quiet state and you'll be able to learn something extra about this Italian island. The best time to visit it is in the afternoon when the sun is setting and gives a nicer hue to the rock.

Awesome for anyone who wants to know about history and what those silly Phoenicians and Romans were up to. Also perfect for a nice stroll with a view. I was here on the first of june during the morning, before the scorching afternoon sun.

Very interesting site from the Punic age. It is quiet well preserved and the entrance is free! The parking is not easy in this area, be prepared to walk a bit if you come by car and there isn’t any shadow on site.

The entry is free, and I visited in the mid afternoon. The burial chambers were carved from the limestone by the Carthaginians…it’s worth a quick visit if you’re interested in ancient history.

Very big cemetery with a rich history. There are many interesting graves and statues that are worth seeing. It’s a pity that many of them are not taken care of. A few of them have even collapsed. The upper floors of the cemetery were closed when I was there. Still, I recommend visiting this monumental cemetery!

You can learn a lot about a place by visiting cemeteries. Art, culture, society, religion... You name it. When coming across this cemetery we decided we wanted to visit it within seconds. I dropped by on a Saturday, asking for a tour after reading on Google that it is recommended to join one. I was asked to come back tomorrow. After a quick stroll (which further intrigued my interest) I went home to come back the following day. The next day a young woman greeted us and gave us a free tour in English. She didn't mind that we were just two people. She showed us around and told us about the history of the cemetery and how it is connected with art and Cagliari's citizens. She told us about the tragedy of little Efisino, the sad destiny of two early pioneers of Sardignias feminism and the mysterious disappearance of one of Italy's famous sculptors - amongst many other things. Also she advised us on how to best handle the gulls that use the cemetery as a breeding place and can become quite defensive of their young. A survival skill that I'm sure will come in useful, sooner or later. 🐤 Thank you again for this amazing (free!!) tour! ❤️ The graveyard itself is mesmerising. It lies within walking distance of the city center, yet offers a unique calmness, that stands in stark contrast with the buzzing city life. When visiting you can feel the urgency of restoration. As a mere visitor all I can say is that I hope that there will be ways of funding the restoration and preservation of this place. Letting it fall apart would be a huge loss, not only to Sardignia, but to history in general.

The Monumental Cemetery of Bonaria lies on the homonymous hill. The cemetery opened in 1829 and boasts sculptures of Sardinian artists as well as from the rest of Italy, who were active from the middle of the 19th to the early 20th century. The styles vary from the Neoclassical, Realism to the Symbolism and Art Nouveau.

Tourists plan their day to visit this place. And they can't even make the effort to mention on google maps or their website that it is CLOSED from 26/03/2025 untill further notice. You can only find that out standing at the closed entrance gate. THANKS for hours lost.

Impressive. Somewhat decayed, but that made it nice. Make sure to bring some food for the stray cats.

I appreciate the sign, but it was a wasted trip for me.

Beautiful old cemetery with lots of old statues. Interesting place.

Amazing historic monument which I am hoping will be kept for future generations to admire

This is yet another amazing medieval building in Piazza Palazzo in Cagliari. Nowadays it is used for hosting exhibitions.

The atmosphere is generally considered peaceful and a stark contrast to the busier, more modern parts of the city.

Most beautiful piazza and Hall at night. Picture perfect. The doors are magnificent

A lovely gallery overlooking Cagliari, next to the wonderful cathedral. The Inge Morath photography exhibition was expertly curated, with the illustrated story of her fascinating life told in the many different rooms of the gallery. Friendly staff, happy to chat about my tee shirt and our shared passion for IPA. A nice and cool space on a hot Sardinian day. Recommended.

Nice place but rather empty, where are the tourists?

Beautiful place to walk around, lose yourself in tiny streets , discover little hidden spots with a special treat - the panoramic view ! Just WOW

The old town walls of Cagliari are still largely intact and are stunning to look at both from below and from above for their amazing views.

Quite a nice overview of the city.

One of the most beautiful panoramic views, a great spot for seeing the sunset. There are a few restaurants where you can sit and enjoy the view.

Good viewpoint to see the city and harbor especially at night it has atmosphere. Place has a couple of restaurants nearby so you can sit and relax with dinner and drink 👍

Great views! Fine place to enjoy a drink and the sunset

Amazing view to the city, do not miss it

This place is forbidden by law. You can not go there. It is dangerous and legally forbidden. Do not go there. You can get fined too. If you are afraid of hights and weak flipflops - avoid. There are people rambling around but there is a sign telling that it is forbidden. The path is unmarked and you can die there.

It is easy to get here by car, but to climb the top requires about 5 minutes of self-care, it is not signposted so just follow your instincts and you will be rewarded with some of those dream photos of Serdenia

It is illegal to be there. I went there today and got a 200€ fine. I didn’t see any signs but the police arrived on a boat and fined everybody that was there. But it is a beautiful bay. Arriving on a boat should be allowed

Worth the hike! We did it in flip flops and were fine. Agree with others that the easiest way to get there is to head towards La Paillotte and then take the path up the rocks from there. It's not marked but pretty well tread so it was relatively easy to follow. Had to scramble at some parts but not many. The water in the cove is deep and refreshing, protected from the wind. It's a rocky beach, good for snorkeling. And despite some recent reviews, yes, it is still a nudist beach. There were a mix of naturalists and fully clothed people when we visited. There are cliff jumping opportunities as well. Really lovely water to swim in.

Very beautiful and secluded beach. It’s a perfect place for nudist lovers. However, the way to get there is very difficult. So I recommend wearing running shoes and take enough water since until you get there, you’ll be exhausted. Also, I advise you to get here by the path near Calamosca beach (that way is faster)

Incredible beach ! Though difficult to access you are rewarded by a beautiful landscape and clear water. There is not too many people as you need to do quite a trek to go there, but just fyi it's a nudist beach. I really loved it. No shade so bring your umbrella.

Very beautiful small beach, rocky. Access is a bit challenging but totally worth it. Very chilled out place.

(Translated by Google) We were warmly welcomed by the owners, very kind. The apartment is very characteristic and comfortable, very clean and with a lot of attention to detail. Excellent location in the heart of Cagliari (Original) Siamo stati accolti calorosamente dai proprietari, molto gentili. L'appartamento è molto caratteristico e confortevole, ben pulito e tanta attenzione per i dettagli. Ottima posizione nel cuore di Cagliari

The outside doesn’t look like much but the inside is breathtaking. It is big, highly decorated and the crypt is nice. The marble statues and pillars are incredibly beautiful. You can enter for free and give a small price for the crypt.

Beautiful baroque church. Please be mindful of your attire when you enter. There is a crypt under the altar that you can visit- entrance is on the left side and exit on the right. There is a shop by the left side that sells some rosaries and other stuff, very affordable and highly recommend. We parked infront of the church, just after the steps, only park if you are a small car (smart, fiat panda, hyundai i10). Otherwise, there are designated parking area or you risk blocking the road.

If you’re in Cagliari, you shouldn’t miss the Cathedral. It’s not only a religious and historical landmark, but also a fascinating mix of architectural styles, scenic views, an atmospheric crypt, and a sense of deep history. Especially recommended for those who appreciate architecture, art, and strolling through charming old streets.

The cathedral looks great also from outside as well from inside. Not many people inside, the entrance is free

Beautiful cathedral. Well worth the visit but go early to avoid other tourists. Pop some cash in the box and visit the crypt.

Beautiful church! The mass it’s at 11:30am but still will be open for a while. Around its many art, sculpture, lovely floors and columns.

The Cattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta e Santa Cecilia on Piazza Palazzo in Cagliari (Sardinia), Italy, was originally built in the Pisan Romanesque style in the 13th century. Baroque alterations from the 18th century were replaced in the 1930s. The ornate 17th century mausoleum of Martin the Younger of Sicily (1374-1409) is in the transept. Marble lions flank the stairway into the presbytery. The lions were originally part of a 12th century pulpit by Master Guglielmo of Pisa.

The sunset view was amazing!! Best service we have had while visiting. Everything we ate was so tasty! My seven year old is a picky eater and she said the pasta was 10/10!

First, the pros: a beautiful terrace with an impressive view. Now the cons: the staff, who don't even notice you. The food is delicious, but for the price, you expect more. You pay for the view, sure, but the food and atmosphere are totally not worth the price. I won't be repeating it.

Beautiful views. Wonderful food. Service terrible - slow and quite grumpy. But tbh the food was worth it. Beware the 20% “tax” on the bill - we couldn’t work out what that was as we were not charged it anywhere else ……/

Lovely place with a great view. The staff is friendly and doesn’t switch to English when you try to speak Italian. The food tastes really good even tho it is a bit pricey! There isn’t a lot of vegetarian options if you are looking for some but the classic pasta with tomato sauce remains a good choice.

Some of the best food we ate in Sardinia. The view is amazing!! The service was also top notch. Definitely recommend.

10/10 recommend to anyone wanting an amazing Sardinian Dinner. If you want views, atmosphere, authentic cuisine and excellent service then this is the spot. It's at the top of the hill with the best views and an easy walk to nearby cafes. The food had great presentation and perfect taste.

One of the best restaurants in Cagliari . Paccheri, burata, tiramisu , and polpo were amazing . Tiramisu out of this galaxy ❤️🔥

Beautiful park surrounded by nature, colored by beautiful flowers and rich vegetation. There is an area used for our dog friends, many tables and benches located along the path that runs along the pond and a playground for children and the disabled. Really nice. I recommend to visit it at least once in a lifetime.

Nice big park with lots of green spaces. Nice fountain space that kids can play in on hot days, so bring a towel and a change of clothes. There are 3 play areas for kids, one of which isn't in great condition, but the other two are good. It was lovely to walk around and lots of exercise space with equipment for people to use. Kind of unusually, there is a huge amount of stray cats who are very friendly and cared for by a group of volunteers, so if you like cats, that's another bonus reason to go here.

Good running area. The calisthenics area is old and not properly to train

Very nice, green, lots of games for children. neat and clean, recommended for families

Nice park and playgrounds. There are not bouncing castles anymore.

Lovely urban park, off the beaten path.

The green dog area is quite nice, not very big but clean. Fewer people in the morning than in the evening. Opening times are quite convenient as well.

Without a doubt the best park in Cagliari. It's quite big, very green, there are several playgrounds for kids, a pond, a bocce ball court, and a small bar. There are ducks, swans, turtles, roosters and probably more! Great for everything from a picnic or a birthday party, to a spot to grab a couple beers with friends.

This park is so beautiful, not just because it’s full of turtles, ducks and singing birds, and not just because of the flowers, the olives and the grass: is one of the biggest parks in Cagliari, where the people exercise, the younger ones gather around, where the kids play football and the neighbors met to chat. Completely out of the tourist circuit. Completely authentic.

Beautiful park located within Cagliari. Very large and green with games and dining options. Various animals and different sculptures. Very nice.

Nice place to relax, with plenty of benches, animals running around. Easily accessible by bus.

Anche oasis of green and home to many species of birds ( including peacocks), hills with panoramic views of the eastern and north-eastern parts of town

A beautiful park with a lot of birds and animals around.

A lovely park that is always family friendly and has two little kiosks that both sell snacks/coffee/ice cream and hot chips.

The Palazzo Civico is the town hall of Cagliari. It is a beautiful two-towered building in the Marina district very near the train & bus stations and Piazza Matteotti.

Walk along the city centre. Nice downtown.

Beautifully restaured

(Translated by Google) Directly across from Piazza Matteotti stands Cagliari's magnificent town hall. At the entrance on the right, you'll find a tourist office where you can pick up free city maps and current information—ideal for a quick orientation. 👍Tip: Pick up your information material here before you head towards the castle. This way, you can plan your route better and won't miss any of the hidden sights along the way. (Original) Direkt gegenüber der Piazza Matteotti steht das prächtige Rathaus von Cagliari.

(Translated by Google) On Via Roma, facing the port, stands this majestic palace in the Catalan Gothic style. Its construction began in 1899, during the visit of King Umberto I and Queen Margherita of Savoy. Inside, one can admire works by Ciusa, Delitala, Marghinotti, and other Sardinian artists. The double staircase leading to the upper floors is particularly beautiful. (Original) Sur la Via Roma, face au port, se dresse ce majestueux palais de style gothique catalan.

(Translated by Google) The city administration building. A very beautiful building—both inside and out. Many rooms are apparently open to the public, but I haven't checked. The city's tourist office is also located here. (Original) Ort der Stadtverwaltung. Sehr schönes Gebäude – sowohl von außen als auch im Innenbereich. Viele Räume sind wohl auch öffentlich zugänglich, ich habe aber nicht nachgeschaut. Hier ist auch das Tourismisbüro der Stadt untergebracht.

I was here the day before the biggest celebration of saint Ephysius. On 1st of May there is a huge parade in the town so the church was decorated with red flowers.

Make sure you cover your shoulder and thighs

Great atmosphere

Bella

(Translated by Google) A small but very pretty church. A must-see if you're in Cagliari, because a salute to Efis is a must! If you're passing through on May 1st, don't miss the Saint's return from Nora. Please note that the times listed here do not correspond to the actual times. (Original) Chiesetta piccola, ma molto carina. Da vedere se siete a Cagliari perché un saluto a Efis è obbligatorio! Se siete di passaggio durante il 1º maggio, non perdetevi il rientro del Santo da Nora. Attenzione perché gli orari qui presenti non corrispondono a quelli reali.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful place. We were there just at the end of the Sant'Efisio festival. A wonderful parade, the whole city was sitting on the church steps and celebrating ❤️ (Original) Piękne miejsce. Byliśmy tam akurat na zakończenie święta Sant'Efisio. Wspaniała parada, całe miasto siedziało na schodach kościoła i świętowało ❤️

(Translated by Google) The church dedicated to the Holy Martyr Efisio, a true jewel set in the historic Stampace district of Cagliari. (Original) La chiesa dedicata al Santo Martire Efisio, un vero gioiello incastonato nello storico quartiere Stampace di Cagliari.

Small but well-maintained park with many resting places. A huge plus is the space designated for houses for stray cats, where people can come to feed and take care of them. It's wonderful that the city allows such initiatives and provides some space for animals in need

I parked here and explored Inglesias - wonderful town with cathedral , Musik playing while you are walking along the narrow street , nice restaurants and coffee places and a relaxed atmosphere

I loved this place. The views, the statuary…the greenery….quiet, peaceful, be sure to check out the climbing wall… and the views……explore and be sure to view things from different angles

Prepare to be mesmerized by the captivating beauty of Giardini Pubblici, Cagliari's pristine public garden! These well-manicured gardens are a breath of fresh air in the city, and what truly sets them apart is their graffiti-free surroundings – a rare find in urban public spaces. Upon entering the northwest corner of the gardens, you'll be greeted by the Galleria Comunale d'Arte, a small but charming fountain, and a collection of fascinating sculptures. As you wander deeper into the gardens, you'll encounter an array of stunning roses and various other flower species that create a truly enchanting atmosphere. The absolute highlight for me was the awe-inspiring magnolia tree, which is easily one of the largest I've ever seen. Its majestic presence is impossible to miss, and it adds an extra touch of magic to the gardens. The views from Giardini Pubblici are nothing short of spectacular. Overlooking the city, this vantage point offers stunning photo opportunities both day and night. The gardens are open from 6 AM until midnight, allowing you ample time to soak in the breathtaking scenery. For those with a taste for adventure, the southeast corner of the park is home to S'Avanzada Climbing Cagliari. This fantastic facility offers rock climbing walls for enthusiasts, making it the perfect place to challenge yourself and embrace your inner daredevil. Giardini Pubblici is an absolute gem in the heart of Cagliari. Its enchanting gardens, incredible views, and unique attractions make it a must-visit destination for both locals and visitors alike. Don't miss out on this unforgettable experience – you'll be glad you came!

A nice retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city below.

Gardens with centuries-old trees, lots of greenery and lots of flowers. There's access for the disabled. There's a kiosk serving snacks, drinks and beverages, a bathroom suitable for disabled people at the entrance, many benches to stop and enjoy a bit of tranquility and a beautiful view of the city of Cagliari. It's a place suitable for children, the elderly and any age group.

Very beautiful garden, with nice plants such as a couple of giant ficus trees! I recommend it for a walk or to take a break on one of the benches. There are also a lot of cats and you can see their little houses and people that take care of them. At one end there is a climbing wall area, which seems pretty nice!

Interesting and beautiful church, worth visiting! Free entry. The schedule is a bit weird so keep in mind that it might be closed while online they say it’s open.

Always closed. Never got the chance to visit it. A pity.

I cried the second I entered the main space. It’s absolutely the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen!

Clean church well decorated, a place christians to pray

Gorgeous

Beautiful Baroque church. Usually is close for service in the evening and afternoon, better to schedule your visit in the morning

Beautifull but closed at 17h31

Exceptional stay – more than 5 stars! If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! Our experience at Old Town Cagliari B&B was outstanding in every way. Stefano is a truly fantastic host—warm, helpful, and full of local tips that made our trip even more special. Whether through messages or in person, he was always available and flexible, tailoring suggestions to our plans. The breakfast was a real highlight: delicious, fresh, and made with genuine care. You can tell a lot of love goes into everything here. The room and common areas were spotless—probably the cleanest place I’ve ever stayed. You immediately feel comfortable and at home. If you're visiting Cagliari, don’t think twice—this is the place to stay. Grazie mille, Stefano!

ALL about this place was amazing! We spend 4 nights there, Stefano and his wife Laura are amazing people. The location is perfect, were been there in the highly summer and the tips about the city was precious. The breakfast: PERFECT. Cant wait to go back!

Stefano was great host. Our room was spacious and tip- top clean. Breakfast was incredible. We got tips for sighseeing and eating out. Thank you.

Stefano’s B&B was perfect for us - well located, a great room, and a lovely breakfast too. Stefano has thought of everything to help provide his guests with a great experience in both the B&B and Cagliari - clear communication, great instructions on location/check in, helpful tips and even beach towels and an umbrella for a day by the sea. Would highly recommend this place.

I really enjoyed my stay at Cagliari Old Town, it’s conveniently located by the harbour and walking distance to the central railway station of Cagliari. There are plenty of bars, restaurants and small shops in the area, many of the city landmarks can be reached on foot. The bus that brings you to Poetto beach stops just across the street. The B&B is sparkling clean and my room was spacious and comfortable with all the necessities even for a longer stay. I was warmly welcomed and perfectly cared during my stay, and got tons of advices and recommendations to help me having a very good time in Sardegna. Definitely will come back.

Cagliari old town B&B nice relaxing clean 👌 A place to experience we where cooked a fabulous breakfast by the owner 😋 😀 thank you Stefano

Beautiful rooms, excellent location in the old town, great breakfast and extremely helpful and friendly owner who is full of tips!
