A passionate local guide will introduce you to the history of the city, the basilica and the ancient theaters.

At its peak, it was one of the largest cities in the Roman Empire. The theater could hold up to 10,000 spectators, and the city revolved around this monument. Discover the main street, the shops, the sanctuary and the water management systems (drinking water storage cistern, public fountain, rainwater harvesting and sewers).
