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 ...

Trencín Castle

Trenčín Castle is relatively large renovated castle, towering on a steep limestone cliff directly above the city of Trenčín. It is a dominant feature not only of Trenčín, but also of the entire Považie region. The castle is a national monument.

History of the castle cliff dates back to the Roman Empire, what is proved by the inscription on the castle cliff proclaiming the victory of Roman legion against Germans in the year 179.

Today’s castle was probably built on the hill-fort. The first proven building on the hill was the Great Moravian rotunda from the 9th century and later there was a stone residential tower, which served to protect the Kingdom of Hungary and the western border. In the late 13th century the castle became a property of Palatine Matúš Csák, who became Mr. of Váh and Tatras.

Matúš Csák of Trenčín built a tower, still known as Matthew’s, which is a dominant determinant of the whole building.
