Today 20% of the structures that once graced the area are left on the top in ruins but still one of the best preserved ancient landmarks. Climbing up is strenuous but not hard and upon reaching the top, the reward is an unforgettable experience. The Lion Staircase and the Mirror Wall is additional highlights of this place.
