This is actually a wonderful site. I think the only reason for it not being a major touristic attraction is the lack of a road nearby. It's not even overgrown like some other less visited ruins are (Pydnai, Phellos, nearby Aperlai). Easy to visit, very rewarding and with great atmosphere and views (it's locsted on top of a hill). A LOT (~30) of well preserved sarcophagi, a cistern, defensive walls, a citadel, towers, a basilica, rock cut tombs and a theater. Just great.
