Pilgrims Causeway
The pilgrims trek to imbibe the health restoring mineral water. They also pay homage to the Romans whose ancient city remains they view. Last but not least is the opportunity to buy souvenuers of their visit. |

Mineral deposits
This has taken centuries to form but tourists wear away the mineral tramping over it. To conserve this matural wonder visiters remove their shows and walk bare footed. It is very uncomfortable. I found every step pergatory.! |
