To the rear of Poetto<\/strong> beach, separated by a road\u00a0 you can admire the site of thousands of beautiful pink flamingos wading in the city\u2019s salt flats and lagoons. This is a spectacle which has been admired in Sardinia for centuries. The settled colony of these magnificent birds can be seen in their natural environment at Molentargius Natural Park<\/strong> within the area of Cagliari, just 5 miles from downtown. The sight of pink flamingos flying low over the lagoon is a photographer\u2019s dream come true. Of course, flamingos are not the only birds you can see. The area has many interesting places for birdwatching. Scientists have identified at\u00a0least 350 botanical, and around 100 ornithological, species around Cagliari.<\/p>\n

Both the beach and the Molentargius park can be reached using the regular bus service from the city centre. The journey takes just over 10 minutes and a return ticket costs only a couple of euros. Otherwise, take a taxi or rent a bike.<\/p>\n

The city area \u00a0is home to some \u00a0beautiful natural parks, other lagoons and a natural reserve, which \u00a0are all well worth a visit.<\/p>\n

The city centre<\/strong> itself is very colorful starting with the buildings in the characteristic quarters of Castello<\/strong>, Marina<\/strong>, Villanova<\/strong> and \u00a0Stampace<\/strong> with their picturesque traditional houses and pedestrian streets where you will find many places to stroll around taking in the atmosphere. There are many B&Bs and hotels in these areas as well as small shops, bars and caf\u00e9s where you can enjoy a wonderful, original Italian cappuccino\u00a0 and a\u00a0 pastry for at least \u00a0half the price of most countries.<\/p>\n

Why not appreciate its ancient history visiting one or two of the city\u2019s museums. The Castello area is home to several museums in the \u201ccitadella dei musei<\/strong>\u201d a complex of museums (just 10 min by walking from the event ) including the archeological museum holding the island\u2019s most significant finds from the Nuragic age, the name given to\u00a0 the unique Sardinian culture on account of \u00a0the \u201cNuraghe\u201d towers built thousand of years ago and still present all over the island. There is also an art gallery and a collection of wax anatomical models.<\/p>\n
