快速信息: These catacombs boast over three kilometers of subterranean tunnels, lined with ancient frescoes and mosaics. Beneath the bustling city lies a vast necropolis, where early Christian worship and burial practices come alive.

亮点: Visitors discover vibrant frescoes of saints and local martyrs, including detailed portraits rarely found in underground burial sites. A unique tradition is the annual blessing procession led through the catacombs, illuminating the space with candlelight and chants, creating a profoundly spiritual atmosphere.
