In Barumini, a small village in the countryside, atop a hill stands the most famous Sardinian nuraghe: Su Nuraxi. Thanks to its exceptional state of conservation and the complexity of its structure, which has five towers (one in the middle and the others around it), city walls, and the ruins of an ancient village, it was designated as an integral part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997, the only one on the island. Get to know this magnificent site with your local guide, and uncover all its secrets.
After visiting Su Nuraxi, you'll visit Casa Zapata Museum, where the ruins of Su Nuraxi ‘e Crexia are enclosed; the nuraghe is located, in fact, in the heart of the town of Barumini and has been used as a foundation for the construction of a 15th-century Spanish noble house.
And before going back, discover one of the Domus de Janas of the area, also known as the fairy houses: rock-hewn rooms that are examples of prehistoric funerary art.
