Welcome into the heart of Sardinia...
welcome to Ogliastra!

According to a Sardinian legend, after God created the world, he created boulders, which he then flung into the sea and trod upon. From this “ichnusa” (footprint, like the shape of Sardinia) an island was created which is a little continent unto itself containing every conceivable type of landscape. And to make Sardinia absolutely perfect, God took the best of what he had already created elsewhere and spread it across its surface...

That is how legend goes to explain how was created this stunning Mediterranean island... land of the clearest skies, land of most wonderful beaches and rocky shores, land of magnificent mountains and of all what is good under the sun.
