Drive two hours southwards from Alghero and you will reach the old gem of Oristano. It may seem serene and peaceful; however it has seen merciless wars of Saracens and Romans. Also Oristano has picked up its poise following long battle of survival in the midst of the Sardinian kingdoms fighting for the glory.
Today, the town redefines opulence, with turquoise blue waters and pastel shaded sea- side houses. Meander in the tumbledown center of the old town at the Torre di Mariano II in Piazza Roma, and wind through the tranquil avenues to the statue of Eleanora d' Arborea – the icon of the island. This visionary woman had framed various statutes which were abided for few centuries after her death.

Cagilari is can be reached if you move further southwards from Oristano, this smooth and terrific city is settled in the Golfo degli Angeli, the twisted straight settled in Sardinia's southernmost edge
It has a much more modish allure than its neighbors on the north. Colorful shopping edifices and jazzy restaurants are common along Via roma and Largo Carlo Felice, however the district never loses its authentic feel and Roman vestiges are speckled all over the city which include a massive amphitheater.
