Giganti di Mont’e Prama Cabras - Oristano
La sorte ci porta ora in un luogo molto particolare, un luogo che ha atteso duemila ottocento anni per diventare ciò che è oggi: un luogo dell’anima.

While still travelling along State Road 131, the island’s main highway, our glance is caught by Nuraghe Cuccurada. When we reach the site we realise that we are in the presence of a complex architectural feat.
Not all nuraghic monuments are located in rugged or hard to reach places. Some today stand near major and busy highways. This is the case of the Nuraghe Losa, an impressive fortress, built in regular courses of basalt blocks, consisting of a central keep surrounded by three towers linked by curtain walls.
Words such as city, town and village, which we use to distinguish between different types of settlement, can be misleading.
Talk about thermal baths, and the atmosphere of ancient Rome is immediately conjured up. Indeed, the baths were a hallmark of the Roman world. The bath complex we are about to visit is close to the River Tirso, amidst idyllic verdant landscape.
Along Highway 131, not far from the Nuraghe Losa, we find one of the best-known and most fascinating monuments in Sardinia: the well temple of Santa Cristina.
