Such a beautiful garden, in the middle of the mountain. It seems like it’s part of a mystery movie and you can discover something new in every corner. It would be good to have more signs to guide your way, but in the same time all the paths and stairs lead you somewhere.

For me this is a perfect way of getting up and down to the palace and fortress. On the way there are many different stops, remains from the walls, and arches. Some dirt-paths are not drawn into the map, but they should almost always lead to somewhere from where you can safely continue the walk.

Absolutely beautiful. Highly recommend going with a tour--we did an air bnb jeep "safari" and it was amazing!

It is nice place but you can find much more better places that are more worthy of your visit...like castle for example.

Very nice place to go biking, hiking, walk or run.
Beautiful place to spend a afternoon with your family or friends.
Although this park doesn't have é nights benches or tables and it is very short indeed.
You can have some beautiful landscape views from here and it is a very nice place to chill.
If you're are into photography you can also get some nice photos here.
Although there isn't anything else besides the short walk and the nice views.
It can get very busy even in the winter and people tend to leave a lot of trash behind.
