Informazioni
Fatti rapidi: La cittadella domina la città dalla cima di una collina e offre una vista panoramica che si estende fino a 5 chilometri. Nonostante i numerosi terremoti, le sue massicce mura spesse fino a 10 metri mantengono notevolmente bene la loro struttura.
Punti salienti: All'interno, mosaici colorati e antiche iscrizioni rivelano dettagli del XIII secolo. I visitatori possono scoprire il tunnel segreto che un tempo serviva come via di fuga ed è lungo quasi 50 metri.
Consigli da insider
- Wear sturdy footwear due to uneven stone paths.
- You can find photo spots especially at the corner towers of the citadel.
- Avoid weekends to avoid crowds.
- The museum inside can be skipped if time is short.
