Learn the fascinating stories and age-old legends associated with these sentinel statues, and observe the intriguing Roman-era graffiti etched into their ancient stone. Before concluding your tour, an optional visit to a local alabaster factory presents an opportunity to witness artisans at work and perhaps acquire a unique, hand-crafted souvenir.
