20의 아스니가지 명소 & 주요 장소

Sardinia's largest urban park lies on the border between the provinces of Oristano and Nuoro, a botanical paradise of rare plants and a wonderful destination for nature lovers. In the historic area of Sarcidano there is a place where you can take beautiful walks along nature trails surrounded by countless plant species and medieval ruins: the Ayermich Park, a 22-hectare oasis that until 1990 was the property of the margraves, the feudal ones owners of this oasis of land. The creator of this nature reserve was Don Ignazio Ayermich Ripoli, a botanist who brought back rare plants from his numerous trips abroad from the mid-19th century. It is an unusual excursion since it is located in the heart of the town of Laconi, about 60 km from Oristano and 90 km from Cagliari. The walk takes you through alleys decorated with a fresh and lively atmosphere. It begins in a forest of oaks, olive groves and black locust trees, dotted with natural ponds, streams, waterfalls and ponds. As you venture deeper into the park you will see a wide variety of orchids, including native ones such as Ophris laconensis and Sarcidanis. Among the tree avenues are unusual forms of vegetation such as Pyracantha coccinea and Collectia cruciata, whose leaves resemble military aircraft, as well as exotic plants such as the majestic Lebanon and Himalayan cedar, trees of exceptional size. Then there are plants from not far away but not common plants such as the Corsican pine, the Fagus sylvatica, the southern magnolia and the Taxus baccata, known as the “tree of death”. Water is a recurring theme and a source of life for the park. It flows in abundance all year round, forming rivers that then fall, such as the Cascata Maggiore or "great waterfalls", one of the park's many attractions.

The parish church, dedicated to S. Ambrogio and, from 1952, also to S. Ignazio, was built in the 16th century in Gothic-Aragonese style in the heart of the historic center of Laconi. The facade, rebuilt in the 18th century, is preceded by a wide staircase, at the top of which opens a beautiful portal with high-relief decorations, above which there is a simple round rose window. The facade is completed by an elaborate tympanum with five towers, into which a rectangular window is embedded. A large octagonal dome stands out at the back. On the left side of the building stands the tall and massive square bell tower. The bell tower is lit by four ogival windows equipped with bells, while the upper part ends with a small, pointed dome with a cross. On the right wall of the building there is a large image of Saint Ignatius. Inside the church you can admire the chapel dedicated to the saint, whose walls have mosaic depictions of episodes from his life, as well as the baptismal font in which he was baptized. In the square in front of the building, a beautiful statue of Fra Ignazio was placed on a very high pedestal made of red trachyte. In addition to the church, the Museum of S. Ignazio can also be visited. Source: https://chiesedisardegna.weebly.com/laconi.html

Really a great impressive tree!

The picnic area invites you to take a break. It is wonderfully quiet and all you can hear is the babbling of the fountain.

In the middle of the Parco Aymerich you can see the ruins of a medieval castle, built in the 13th century to keep an eye on the border between the Guidicato of Arborea and that of Cagliari. This has also been claimed by each of these governments. The main tower is of Spanish origin and was converted into a prison in the 18th century. It is a two-story rectangular building with an arched entrance and a barrel-vaulted ceiling leading to a spacious courtyard. The building's doors and windows are decorated with elegant Catalan Gothic frames. A portico leads to a 35 m long room divided into different rooms. The noble residents lived on the upper floor and the servants lived on the lower floor. Source: https://www.sardegnaturismo.it/en/explore/parco-aymerich

It is the largest urban park in Sardinia, in which you can find countless exotic plants imported by Don Ignazio Aymerich Ripoll, curator of the nature reserve. There are waterfalls, lakes, natural paths and beautiful forests of holm oaks, downy oaks and many others. There are refreshment areas with benches and tables where you can eat. It cannot be visited by bike, but you can easily enter with it and leave it in the guardhouse area to visit the park on foot!

Very nicely landscaped park. Refreshing coolness when it's hot.

Fascinating remains of the castle, with a little imagination you can guess how beautiful it could have been
