A lot of cows, bells sounds everywhere. Free access. Stone tables and benches. Nice nuraghe, beautiful rocks and trees. Magické place.

Visited during wrc. The signs that had info of the place were heavily sun burnt. Actually to the point that u couldn't read them. Otherwise no complaints

Un bellissimo Nuraghe del quale ho apprezzato la particolare conformazione architettonica, un po' a corridoio e un po' a tholos, ed il sapiente utilizzo dei pre-esistenti grossi blocchi granitici per rinforzare la struttura e permettere la realizzazione dei livelli superiori; molto intrigante anche il vano "magazzino", a livello poco inferiore del piano di calpestio, al quale si accede da un piccolo ingresso nel lato destro del Nuraghe. Inoltre si trova in mezzo ad una vastissima foresta di sughere che rendono il Nuraghe ancora più apprezzabile e in zona ci sono molti sentieri naturalistici e paesaggistici assolutamente alla portata.

Immense nuraghe located in Buddusò where every year the WRC Rally World Championship takes place just a few steps away. Titanic work ...

Church of St Donatus

The Church of St Donatus name refers to Donatus of Zadar, who began construction on this church in the 9th century and ended it on the northeastern part of the Roman forum. It is the largest Pre-Romanesque building in Croatia.

The beginning of the building of the church was placed to the second half of the 8th century, and it is supposed to have been completed in the 9th century. The Zadar bishop and diplomat Donat (8th and 9th centuries) is credited with the building of the church. He led the representations of the Dalmatian cities to Constantinople and Charles the Great, which is why this church bears slight resemblance to Charlemagne's court chapels, especially the one in Aachen, and also to the Basilica of San Vitale in Ravenna. It belongs to the Pre-Romanesque architectural period.

The circular church, formerly domed, is 27 m high and is characterised by simplicity and technical primitivism.
