Hello Steemians,
welcome to the eleventh part of our trip on the island of Sardinia. Sorry for the long posting break, but since steemit.com was not usable for nearly a month now, I had no muse to post something.
On our third last day we visited the excavation site Nora in the south of the island.
The city was founded in the 9th century BC and is located a few kilometres southeast of Pula on a peninsula.
From the former city, only the floor plans of the buildings can be seen. In the background, you can see the Torre del Coltellazzo o di Sant' Efisio tower, which is located at the tip of the peninsula.
Nora also had a small theatre, of which the ruins are still visible.
To the east of the peninsula is the island Isola del Coltellazzo. It looks a little bit like a petrified submarine that's just showing up.
Some of the columns have been put up again.
My wife even dared to pose between these four pillars.
In another place, for thousands of years, the original ruins of the vaults of the city's former baths have been preserved.
After visiting Nora we had a break at one of the beautiful beaches near Pula.
Thank you for reading!
