Highlights

  • Expect a lot of walking across uneven, often sun-exposed paths.
  • The site is laid out like a city, so you will move between public squares, domestic houses with mosaics and monumental façades.
  • Interpretive signs are present but a guide or audio guide brings the history into focus.
  • Parts of the site include an on-site virtual or small museum, useful if you want context without extra travel.
