Cagliari Sardinia Travel Attractions – Italia
Cagliari is the capital of the Cagliari province and of the autonomous region of Sardinia - an island in the Mediterranean, which belongs to Italy.
The spoken language is Italian and Sardinian, which is considered the most conservative Romance language. It has an area of 85.45 square kilometers and a population of 300,000.
The climate of the city of Cagliari is the same as that of the Island of Sardinia, mainly Mediterranean, with a Mediterranean autumn and spring, and a hot summer and mild winter. This is influenced by the Atlantic and African air masses and. The NW wind, mistral, strongly dominates winter, and in the summer it makes the air dry and hard to breathe.
In ancient times, Cagliari was an important Phoenician trading center. It went under Roman suzerainty, with the rest of the island in 238 BC. Then it was controlled in order by vandals, the Byzantine Empire (in 638), Genoa, Pisa, Aragon (during the Catalan domination the city was called Caller), Spain (1326), and briefly Austria, until it entered Piedmont Duchy in 1720. In 1847 the city returned to Italy.
