Safety notes

  • Rock-cut tombs, inscriptions and old-town streets are fragile and, outside the managed sites, unfenced. Stay on the paths, touch nothing, and take nothing — removing anything from an archaeological site is an offence.
  • The managed heritage sites admit visitors by timed ticket and close to walk-ups. Book before you drive.
