Description
This live-streamed, interactive Online Experience will take you to the heart of Olbia, called the "Happy City" by the Greek Olbios because it is in a strategic and very fertile location in the Mediterranean, all from the comfort of your own home.
Walking through the streets of the old town, flip through the pages of history right from when the Phoenicians laid its foundation stone, followed by the Greeks and the Punics until the Romans finally took charge.
Discover how today's neighbourhoods are witnesses of ancient sanctuaries, necropolises and churches, surrounded by defensive walls that are barely recognizable today. Also referred to as the "Gateway of Sardinia", the town is of both touristic and religious importance, decorated with gorgeous beaches and beautiful countryside.
The most important symbol of the religious architecture of Olbia is undeniably the Basilica of San Simplicio, which narrates the history of 1700 years, from its necropolis and underground temples to the Piedmontese Romanesque building. Wonderful curiosities and anecdotes of one of the cities await you, and so does your local guide.
