Very little is left of this once important site and the drive up the mountain's narrow road is not easy. Once there, what you see is what you get-very little to see.

Three unique ancient and medieval eras co-habit in the area, Ancient Cretan, Byzantine, Venetian ruins are all quite impressive. A must to see. Close by a renovated castle remnant of the turkish occupation.

We were pleasantly surprised by the large number of Greek and Roman ruins at the site and spent a very enjoyable hour wandering around.
