Alghero — Centro Storico Catalano
Sardinia
Alghero was settled by Catalan colonists in the 14th century and the old town still bears their imprint in its street names, architecture and a dialect of Catalan still spoken by some residents today — a distinct cultural layer from the natural sights at nearby Capo Caccia. The flat rampart walk around the walls is easy and level.
