ORISTANO
A really choreographic Carnival takes place in Sardinia, in the town of Oristano, with the famous Sartiglia, a race of medieval origins, which incorporates the ancient traditions of this land, with colorful Spanish-style costumes, echoes of jousting, and rural rituals to propitiate the fertility of the land.
