The castle has been closed for some time it seems. But the limestone plateau above the sea is magnificent with rock carved like lace.

A wonderful castle that should be valued and be able to visit. It has suffered a collapse in a part of a wall and they should fix it. There is no visiting hours at the door, so I imagine that it is not accessible.

I have gone to take some photos, the beautiful surroundings, but the interior condition is a shame and that you cannot enjoy it

A monument that would have something to tell if it could. It is located in a dreamlike bay.

Beautiful castle in the style as there are more along the coast of Andalusia. This has a very nice location which makes it special, especially on the sea side due to the impacts of the sea on the coast, which resulted in a separate landscape. The castle itself cannot be viewed from the inside. A pity in itself but the location is what makes it so beautiful here. It is a pity that the next-door catering business seems to be dumping their mess wherever it suits them

Walls of Constantinople

The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.

Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
