Tresnuraghes
Driving south from Bosa for about 5 minutes you will reach the very traditional village of Tresnuraghes. This is a typical Sardinian village where time appears to have stood still. The majority of the inhabitants work on the land in some form or another, either tending their animals, vineyards or olive groves and growing their own vegetables and making their own cheese. These are people that far prefer to eat and drink their own produce, or produce made by someone they know they never buy anything from a shop if they can help it.
 On warm evenings the men gather on the many benches that are scattered around and catch up with the news of the day and the women can be found in a separate gatherings, sometimes making lace or shelling beans for dinner and having a good gossip!
 Strangers here are looked on with curiosity and they may well stare at you but should you give them a smile and a ‘Buongiorno’ they will want to know all about you and where you come from. Although a little intimidating at first the people here are open and friendly.

 The parochial church and the local saint is San Giorgio (St. George) and this large impressive church contains some wonderful frescos. We also attended a marvellous carol concert here last year with choirs and singers from all over Sardinia. There are two other, smaller churches, one either side of the main through road, Santa Croce and San Lorenzo.
 Slightly out of town is the church of San Marco where a festival is held twice a year . The church is sign posted from the village and it is found in a wonderfully peaceful countryside setting.

The village is well known locally for its many ‘festas’. At some times during the year it seems that every weekend there is another one. All have their foundations in Catholicism but along with the religious undertones it is now a good excuse to eat and drink a lot, and meet friends for a chat.
