With close to half a million inhabitants, Cagliari is Sardinia’s largest city and also its capital. Arriving in the late afternoon, we checked into our hotel and walked to the nearby city center to get a late dinner. Well, we say late, but by Italian standards it was still early with most of the restaurants not filling up until after ten. One thing we like about European cities and towns is that they almost inevitably have a part of the town that is closed to cars and are lined with restaurants with outdoor seating. Cagliari was no exception.
On the next morning we went for a walk through the town and up to the old walled city with beautiful views over the city. Apart from Melbourne, Australia, we have never come across a city with such an affinity for graffiti.
