Sarroch,
which is situated twenty five kilometres from Cagliari, has 5.600
inhabitants. This number becomes 10.000 in the summer with the invasion
of the zones of Perda e Sali and Portu Columbu. The origin of the name
is mysterious. It might derive from the Phonenician "Sharak" meaning
bunch of grapes , or perhaps from the Catalan "S'arroch" with clear
reference of the majestic rock that dominates the village. Videos
