Near the marvelous Pan di Zucchero stack in Masua, Sardinia, Italy, it’s possible to visit Porto Flavia. Built in the first half of the 20th century, the harbor has been named after Flavia Vecelli, the daughter of Cesare Vecelli, who engineered and designed the harbor. The harbor's features make it unique in the world, and at the time of its construction it was an outstanding engineering feat.

Proprio stamattina 6 maggio 2.021 ero là col mio cane. Visita al porticciolo di Masua e passeggiata fino all'ingresso della galleria di Porto Flavia. Non so, ma c'è qualcosa che mi spinge là ogni volta che posso e confesso che forse nessun luogo della Sardegna mi fa sentire a casa come la costiera di Masua. L'emozione che sento non è descrivibile a parole...è come quando si lascia casa e si ritorna dopo tanti anni. E' il luogo in cui avrei voluto abitare per tutta la vita, anche in solitudine...io e quella natura.

I love this! Had to find more information on mining at Masua as I wanted to know what they were mining. Fascinating: “The rocky south-west coast of Sardinia combines natural beauty and impressive industrial heritage. The Miniera di Masua and Porto Flavia are within the Geological Mining Park of Sardinia. Mining at Masua dates to the seventeenth century. It expanded with the Montesanto company in 1863, producing lead and zinc with 700 workers. In 1922 it was taken over by the Belgian company Sociétè de la Vieille Montagne, which invested in a major project for loading ore into ships. The engineer Cesare Vecelli designed a pair of tunnels 600 metres long through the cliffs to where ships could wait safely. The top tunnel took ore by electric railway to nine silos 18 metres deep, which stored 10,000 tons ready for loading ships. A conveyer in the bottom tunnel carried it from the silos out over the waiting ships. Vecelli named the port for his daughter Flavia. Visitors to the tunnels go by pre-booked guided tours, which take them through the tunnels to a tall archway and a tower built into the cliff. The mining village and a museum of mining machinery can be seen at Masua.”
