    A very special place. We liked from the moment we putted our foots on that hill. It has a good energy. You feel free in that place although it is a fortress. The place is very clean, well maintained.

    I had some extra time to kill before catching my train, so I did some sightseeing and went to the fortress. I hiked up and down the hill and I'm glad I decided to see this sight! It has great views of the city below and is a cool fortress to see. However, there were plenty of signs warning of vipers! I didn't see any snakes, but this made me rethink hiking through the unpaved trails.
