Open all day and night. A very intriguing place. I sat for around half an hour one morning, had some breakfast and moved on. didn't see anybody else. found it very peaceful. unbelievable just how old it actually is.

Not much to see, but it great to walk along the ramparts and imagine what it would have looked like inside the area you're walking around.
