During my stay in Italy, I visited many wonderful destinations. The biggest impression I had was from visiting Rome and the Vatican, but I will write about that later. At the suggestion of a friend, we went to Sardinia.From Rome we arrived in Alghero, and then without delay set off for Bosa.There is a direct line from Alghero, and after some 60 minutes of comfortable driving, overlooking the beautiful turquoise sea, we arrived in this settlement or small town. Admittedly, there were many curves, but we were enjoying the beauty of nature so it didn't bother us.On one side, yachts in the turquoise sea, on the other, unusual greenery, composed mainly of bushes and rocks.

So our Wednesday walk begins in Bosa. Bosa is a town with a castle on a hill, below which descend streets full of colorful houses,i.e. they are all painted in pastel colors.It is a very peaceful and quiet town. Probably because the beach is 2.km away from the town, so tourists just walk past and continue on their way.Besides being recognizable by their colorful facades and winding, stone-paved streets, the houses are decorated with various ornaments and every house has flowers in the windows, and some houses are not even visible because of the creepers. The streets are very narrow.

The main street is full of cafes and restaurants. When we arrived and sat down to eat, all we heard was a song coming from someone's apartment. I really liked this silence.
The Temo River flows through Bosa. As we learned from the locals, it is the only navigable river in Sardinia and flows into the sea, and that at the mouth where the river flows there are good beaches and a hotel. But there are no tourists.

The city does not have any special sights except the Castle and one church, so the walk itself is a special attraction.The walk itself takes about 2 hours. So we continued our journey for today.

After a drive of about 160 km we arrived in Porte Cervo, which is the central place of Costas Smeraldi. We stayed on the beach until sunset and then moved on. Everything is expensive and beautiful here. So we didn't stay long.
