Capocorb Vell submitted by sem : Poking around the ruins I came across a winding corridor reminiscent of the palaces on Crete. At its end was a small staircase leading to a platform. This is the view of the western talaiot from this platform and the angle suggests a view of the mid-winter sunset.

    Yes David, you do have to through the bar to get to the site and there seemed to be more people in the bar than the site.

As said above there is a 2 Euro charge here but you do get an information sheet to wander around with. The site itself is an absolute gem!

If you wish to visit, it's handy to know that there's a two euro entry fee. Open 10:00 - 17:00 closed Thursdays.
