Well-preserved nuraghe, near Abbasanta, evidence of megalithic architecture in the Nuragic civilization.
Unfortunately, when we arrived close to closing time, the ticket office staff allowed us a quick visit.
Having less than half an hour available, we were still able to admire the grandeur and charm of this large nuraghe. Recommended visit. Will definitely come back!

Amazing place and amazing historical site. Well worth a trip there to see. Doesn't look like much from the outside but inside it's amazing the engineering from so long ago. Being from Australia we don't get to see such amazing old structures like this anywhere there.

An excellent site to visit, close to Cagliari. Excellent 30 minute guided tour with Franco. In addition to the description of the Nuraghe, were also treated to an explanation of the difference between green and black olives and the preparation of olive oil. If you have time, the truly more spectacular site is Nuraghe Sant Antinu, about 2 hours north of Cagliari.

Visited both which are 40 km apart. Despite the proximity of the road both sites are more atmospheric. The great triangular basalt tower is now gilded with lichen, rises above the splendid defensive wall of the former town with passages going in different directions. The external masonry is beautifully graded and remains a feat of engineering skill of the builders. It gives that feeling of formidable strength and refuge and continued to be used until early medieval period.

Amazing opportunity to experience the lost Sardinian Nuragic civilization which dates back to the Bronze Age (1600-1200 BC). It demonstrates amazing skill and building achievements. Nuraghe Losa is a very large example which you are able to walk into and climb through an internal spiral stairway, emerging at the top.
5 euro entrance fee is worth it and allows them to keep the area maintained and secured. Information pamphlets are available in English from the small restaurant/info area.

"Nuragh"i are quite many in Sardinia. They were towers built with "dry" stones that is, without cement. Inside these people made steps to climb up to the top.
Quite interesting.

If you are on the way between Nuoro and Oristano then this is an impressive Nuragic site to visit. It has a surrounding enclosure wall and a fine Nuraghe tower. The site was established in the Nuragic era (1400 to 700 BC) and occupied by Romans and even up to early mediaeval times.

this site is an incredible architectural gem....erected ~3000 years ago by bronze age people....this tower was constructed using no mortar...just shaped stones, worked and fitted in a circular manner, hollow on the inside, with a circular staircase leading to the top of the tower.. the tower was ~30 feet tall, surrounded by smaller circular stone enclosures which could have been dwellings, or storage sites. there is a stone wall which surrounds this site, probably defensive in nature... what's interesting is the fact that once we arrived back home, a individual who teaches at our local college branch, was going to give a lecture about these structures a few months later...just think of the thought that had to go into erecting these topwers....no mortar, sloping sides, intricately placed stones, a spiral staircase on the inside (again, no mortar)....and they have withstood 3k years of weather, human habitation, etc...if you get the chance...you must see them

This was a partially planned stop on the way from Alghero airport to the south of the island. Other reviewers have already done the site justice and I just want to add that if you're interested in archaeology/history then this is well worth a stopover. The signage, in Italian and perfect English is excellent providing background information and the right amount of detail. There is a small shop offering refreshments by the car park.

I didn't know what to expect of Nuraghe Losa. Perhaps it was just going to be a pile of stones. It is very conveniently located off the motorway with it's own exit. Easy, plentiful parking and a very helpful lady who sold us the tickets and explained with a drawing (avoiding language difficulties) how the building originally looked. Very informative, supplemented with some English leaflets.

There is also a small exhibition of artefacts, informative signs in several languages, a bar and toilets on the sight.

The Nuraghe building is well preserved/restored and with a little imagination you see the Bronze Age inhabitants from 3500 years ago. The building skills and design are amazing and you can climb up the spiral slope that takes you to the top of the main tower. It is cool inside like a cave when it is very hot outside.

Very clever, very interesting and even my beach loving wife felt it was a worthwhile visit.

If you visit Sardinia you really should take the time to check out one of these ruins and I can highly recommend this one.
