Historical territories, microcosms of Sardinia

Divided, by referendum, into eight provinces, the lay-out of Sardinia is further characterised by territorial specificity of great interest that represents dense microcosms of well exploited and exploitable environmental and cultural wealth. The island in fact keeps its vital subdivision alive, set up in medieval times, of the four judicial entities - Cagliari, Torres, Arborea and Gallura - in curatorial areas, that is, in easily circumscribed administrable regions. The pulsating heart of the island includes territories rich in tradition and exceptional natural landscape such as Barbagia, Baronie, Gennargentu, Supramonte, Mandrolisai, Barigadu, Sarcidano and Goceano. Unusual, often little known sceneries, rich in charm and identity to discover corners and snippets of the thousand faces of Sardinia.
