Very exotic and wild place, the river that surrounds almost the whole castle (ruins) the remains of the ancient walls, the slopes - it all somehow paints a picture of how life could have been several hundred years ago.

Interesting ruined castle with a nice museum. The museum has some artifacts found on the grounds. The castle itself has been through multiple captures. Worth a visit if in the area.
