Downwind from the Kala are these two old neighbourhoods, which sit on either side of the Osumi River. On the north side is Mangalem, which is traditionally Muslim, while Christian Gorica is on the south bank.
Both districts are composed of narrow alleys of ancient white stone houses with terracotta tiles, timber doors and fresh flower arrangements.
You could easily lose a few hours exploring these ancient neighbourhoods. Gorica and Mangalem are connected by the Gorica Bridge, from 1780, made up of seven arches and suffused with folklore.
