                      Statiinea este deosebit de frumoasa. Orasul este bine structurat cu multiple optiuni de transport, inchirieri masini si scootere, taxi, uber, autobus local. In toto orasul, dar mai ales in centrul vechi este foarte cald in aceasta perioada. Este esential o hidratare corespunzatoare, pe tot parcursul zilei. Cemtrul vechi este foarte aglomerat in timpul zilei dar forfota este si mare dupa apusul soarelui. taxele de intrare pentru vestigii, muzee, expozitii mi s-au parut prea mari in raport cu ceea ce ofereau vizitatorului ca si experienta.
