Abstract

Recently, the ways of visiting and enjoying the city have changed substantially, as well as the interest in places which are less visited in the classic points of interest - POIs (Matoga et al., 2018). This brings to light new forms of a multicultural tourism, which however activate fruition processes not yet planned and managed within the classic rules of sustainable development, resilience and the protection of cultural and historical authenticity of places. For these reasons, the main objective of this article is to focus on cultural integration in the Metropolitan City of Cagliari, constituted by 17 Municipalities in the South of Sardinia (Italy), in order to provide smart tourism solutions in a real context. The territory of the Metropolitan City of Cagliari is characterised by different types of undervalued or little known POIs (nuraghes, churches, historic centres, religious manifestations, religious festivals, and manifestations of identitarian tradition), which, however, are part of a heritage of absolute value that cannot be compared. Therefore, the working hypothesis is to redefine the concept of cultural good in its tangible or intangible form, in order to constitute a system with other POIs located in the metropolitan context. In relation to these assumptions, the paper wants to propose an integrated model of singular POIs and habitats, after describing the historical and cultural peculiarities of the Metropolitan City of Cagliari.
