Discover Cagliari

Contenido

Hello there!
Are you ready to discover Cagliari?
With this playlist you will be able to walk around the city and discover the beauty of it while taking fun pictures, completing little challenges or talking with the locals. The more you go out of your comfort zone, the more you’ll discover the amazing secrets that the city has to offer.
﻿
Some rules and suggestions:
If you're in a multicultural group, try to only speak English, as much as possible, even if you’re accompanied by an Italian teammate. We encourage you to take turns in talking with the locals, too. But if you're in Cagliari as a volunteer or anyway trying to learn Italian, do try to speak as much Italian as possible, instead!
People will usually be open to tourists and foreigners, but not many know English well. If you find a local who can’t speak English too well, try looking for another one: younger people will usually be more comfortable with the language, and anyone who works with tourists a lot will be able to communicate. But if you're learning Italian, this is a great opportunity to practice the language!
Some landmarks may require you to pay a ticket to enter. You’re not required to get inside unless you wish to, pictures from outside will be more than enough!
Being able to orient oneself and read a map is a crucial part of these activities. A little guidance from any local members of the team or friends is acceptable, but try to find your own way. Sometimes getting a little lost leads to the best experiences!
You’ll need constant internet access, in order to complete this playlist. Sometimes you’ll be asked to use some digital online tools, and Google Maps will be your friend throughout the tour. If you don’t have internet access through your phone’s mobile data, turn on your wi-fi and look for “Free Wi-Fi Ca” network. Much of the city centre is covered by this open wi-fi network that allows you to navigate for 3 consecutive hours for free by just accepting their terms and conditions.

So what are you waiting for?

Italy is a strongly Catholic country and you can certainly see that from the amount of churches that Cagliari has to offer.
Churches in Cagliari date back to various centuries, and have been built in a variety of styles. Most of them are located in the historical center of town and are free to visit, they are usually open to the public and you can go there on your own.
From the tall Cathedral of St. Mary to the panoramic Church of Bonaria, and from the creepy frescos of St. Sepulchre to the small but renowned Church of St. Efisio, protector of Cagliari and probably the most revered Saint in Sardinia, there’s no shortage of interesting places to discover and learn the history of.
﻿
For this activity, you can start from Piazza Yenne and move around the historical centre from there.
If you're tackling this activity after activity 2 of the playlist and you've ended up in Via Stretta or Via Piccioni, we suggest that you start instead from the Cathedral and move downhill from there.
You can find a selection of interesting churches and a map of a possible itinerary in the resources section and in the map below.
We recommend the use of Google Maps for finding your way.

Tareas

Tarea no.1

Evidencia verificada por: Un organizador de actividades

Let's be creative, why don't we?
Take a picture of a church of your choosing from a creative angle.
Don’t just take a picture of its façade, though, and instead focus on some detail of its architecture that catches your eye. Is it the way a particular window reflects the light? Or how the cross on top seems just a little crooked?
Find your special detail and upload your picture as evidence.

Tarea no.2

Evidencia verificada por: Un organizador de actividades

Churches can be beautiful on the outside, but often it's when you go inside that you will find their most interesting treasures.
If you have the chance to go in and visit any of the churches you’re coming across, take a picture of either the pipe organ, the altar or the coolest work of art you can see (it can be a statue, a painting, or even a stained glass window) - then upload it as evidence!

Tarea no.3

Evidencia verificada por: Un organizador de actividades

Find the little Church of St. Efisio and take a group picture (or a selfie) in front of it.
St. Efisio is celebrated each year with a great festival on the 1st of May, and that’s one of the main events in the whole island of Sardinia.
﻿
Fun fact: St. Efisio is not the Saint Patron of Cagliari, but legend has it that he saved the city once from pestilence and once from a French invasion, so he’s much more revered than the actual Saint Patron, St. Saturnino.
