Cagliari, all the colors of the world in the city

Place of departure but also of arrivals, Sardinia is an island lapped by the sea and the cultures: historically the result of a stratification of populations, dominations and foreign influences, the Sardinian identity is anything but fundamentalist. Open to other contaminations, it keeps its traditions firm, in the conviction that flattening the differences does not generate an encounter, but the annihilation of the riches of which mankind naturally becomes the bearer. To notice all this, it is enough to change perspective and go beyond the port of the city, penetrating the maze of streets that compose it, discovering the encounter between religions in places of worship – from the mosque to the Orthodox church; tasting the cuisines of the world – from Eritrean to Pakistani dishes, to the Turks and Senegalese; admiring clothes and handicrafts of different origins – African clothes, oriental ceramics … Sardinian work! Of this sensorial and intercultural tourism Amici di Sardegna we wanted to be a spokesman, thanks to the national project Our invisible cities. Meetings and new narratives of the world in the city, financed by the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation and with the lead Acra Foundation. Accompany us on our intercultural tours, come and discover the city with all the colors of the world!Luogo di partenza ma anche di arrivi, la Sardegna è un’isola lambita dal mare e dalle culture: storicamente frutto di una stratificazione di popolazioni, dominazioni e influssi stranieri, l’identità sarda è tutt’altro che integralista. Aperta a contaminazioni altre, tiene salde le proprie tradizioni, nella convinzione che appiattire le diversità non genera incontro, ma annullamento delle ricchezze di cui il genere umano si fa naturalmente portatore.
