Art, architecture and living traditions

Piazza Faber is home to a colourful installation designed by Renzo Piano together with Studio Alvisi Kirimoto. It captures the sunlight and gives the granite greater brightness. This makes the square a specific destination for anyone who wants to experience design and urban space attentively.

The Templense Museum in the Polo Museale Templense displays important works of art. These include the statue of Saint Sebastian by Pierre Pouget. The museum also preserves an old book collection containing Cinquecentine and typographic rarities.

At the Stazione Ferroviaria di Tempio, the interior murals by Giuseppe Biasi depict scenes of rural life and everyday life. Some of the paintings have been lost, making visible the transmitted and no longer fully preserved side of this place as well.

The Casa di Nino di Gallura is an important example of Tempio Pausania's medieval architecture. Following a recent restoration, three characteristic openings can be seen there.

During the Carnevale Tempiese processions, large, colourful allegorical papier-mâché floats move along the carnival route.

Walking trails and routes into the landscape

The walking route „Alla scoperta della Città di Pietra“ begins at the Stazione Ferroviaria di Tempio, ends at Piazza Gallura and leads to the city's most important sights.

The circular route „Scoprendo i parchi e il verde cittadino“ begins at Parco delle Rimembranze and runs in the shade of the city's parks. For planning your day, this walking route offers a different perspective on Tempio Pausania from the sightseeing route.

The Monte Limbara route begins in Tempio Pausania and leads by car or off-road vehicle through forests and along trails to Cima del Monte Limbara. This means that, alongside urban walking trails, longer forest routes to a summit destination are also part of the travel experience.

Landscape between springs and panoramic views

The Fonti di Rinagghiu are diuretic springs that have been known since antiquity for their therapeutic properties. They are located in a cool, green setting and therefore combine a distinctive natural backdrop with a long-established significance.

From the summit of Nuraghe Izzana, there is a 360-degree view over the landscape of the Valle della Luna. This viewpoint provides a clear highlight if you value open landscapes and a comprehensive panorama as part of your stay.

A regional note with Moscato di Tempio

Moscato di Tempio is a DOC sparkling wine produced in Tempio and the surrounding areas from 100 percent Moscato grapes. As a product clearly associated with the region, it complements the cultural, natural and active sides of the area.

When choosing your holiday apartment, you can therefore consider whether to focus on museums and architecture, an urban walking route, the forests of Monte Limbara or landscape experiences such as the view from Nuraghe Izzana. The different destinations help you determine your preferred daily rhythm without limiting the trip to just one type of experience.

If you would then like to compare other destinations: Capo Ferro, Limpiddu, Monte Petrosu, Punta Molara, Aggius, Bortigiadas, Terravecchia-Portoquadro, Li Cuncheddi.
