Archaeological excavations It is said that people lived here in the 2nd millennium BC. City itself quite green and clean, and makes a pleasant impression. The only thing was difficult to navigate on the road, since the city is irregularly shaped and divided by rivers, we are several times wandered and left not where they wanted.
