The tower got its name from a marble elephant statue above the gate. How could it be otherwise: From the tower, you can also enjoy a magnificent panoramic view of Cagliari and Sardinia. The price for this view is almost 120 steps.

The old bastion was a defensive structure that was removed in the 19th century and converted into a neoclassical square. From there, you can enjoy another expansive view of Cagliari, as the viewing platform is located on the aforementioned hill in the old town. You can also easily reach the platform by elevator, avoiding the marble staircase. Also worth seeing on the old bastion is the triumphal arch, damaged in World War II but subsequently rebuilt.

This place is a good example of how conservation can be overdone. Driving along the dam allows you to get closer to the flamingos than walking or cycling through the so-called park. I was disappointed. It's better to go to the zoo to see the flamingos.
