A truly amazing place - both visual and of course ... it's history.
It must have been very formidible and impressive in its day.
It looks as if nothing lives here at all- there is no greenery to be seen anywhere and it seems to go on forever.
Excellent photographs - a very interesting tour.
Many thanks for posting
Regards Rob
