The history of its origin is very unusual - the guides will tell you about everything in more detail. To our days, 18 buildings out of all 22 towers have been preserved. Their height reaches up to 5 meters, and the length of the entire wall is up to 1 km. The entire facility covers an area of 4.5 hectares.

During the one-day tour, the following objects can be visited on the territory of this complex:

• the grave of St. Matthew (one of the apostles of Jesus Christ). It is forbidden to carry out excavations here,
• ancient water supply (what remains of it). Caution is needed here, because the object is right under your feet,
• ruins of Roman baths (they were converted in oriental style),
• museum of archaeological finds (unique artifacts from excavations are presented here).

All these sights can be explored in more detail during various excursions that can be ordered on our website.
