believe, is renowned for its beautiful beaches and roman ruins, which include an impressive and largely intact Amphitheatre. It strikes me as interesting, that the two Pulas should have these things in common. The Pula I am visiting, however, is set not on the Adriatic, but rather, near the southernmost tip of Sardinia, smack bang in the centre of the Med. Sadly, the small Amphitheatre here now rests in picturesque ruins.
ARRIVAL: En route to Cagliari, Sardinia's ancient capital, the plane had hovered above the island's spectacular western coastline, dipped slightly inland, and then, upon landing, had seemed almost to skim the surface of the sea before coming safely to rest on Sardinian ground. I felt a vague (and no doubt unwarranted) sense of narrowly averted disaster. The airport itself is very modern, with a new-car sort of smell ...

Advantages: beautiful Disadvantages: it's not a white spot on the map any more
I should warn you: this is the longest opinion I've written so far. A double espresso beside your computer might help you to get through the reading. Not a cup of tea, we're going to coffee country! In case you think of going to Sardinia or any other Italian region one day, forget about tea altogether. Only a masochist would order tea in an Italian bar (as only an Italian masochist would order coffee in a British establishment, so there). When you offer tea to an Italian, you might hear, "No, thank you, I'm fine." Italians drink tea, black or the herbal variety, when they feel unwell, it's medicine for them.
Now, have you got your coffee ready? Off we go.
HOW TO GET THERE
The majority of German tourists go to Sardinia by car and ferry, the majority of British tourists go there by plane. Ah, yes, of course, I hear you saying ...

Advantages: Good beaches, dramatic scenery, historical interest, unspoilt interior Disadvantages: The cost, and the Costa Smeralda in particular
Italian and English were easily struck up in cafés, admittedly greatly facilitated by the knowledge necessary to discuss the career of Gianfranco Zola, born in Nuoro province, and now returned to Sardinia to play for Cagliari after many years as a Chelsea idol.

We stayed at Aritzo in the heart of the Monti del Gennargantu ? the Barbagia?s central massif - at the Hotel Sa Muvara, one of those discoveries so good that I hesitate to share it.
Sardinian hotels are not on the whole cheap. The Sa Muvara was the least expensive we stayed in and easily the best, beautifully situated and well-equipped with huge swimming-pool, pleasant restaurant and comfortable well-furnished rooms. We paid 73 euros per head per night half-board for a room with balcony and mountain view. Half-board included a big ...
