4th STOP: Transverse western wall (GPS spot)
We are in front of the western transverse wall of the town which divides the town into two almost equal parts. Passing through the wall we are guided to the highest point of the city where the Episcopal Church is.

Did you find the new spot?

YES

Well done. You are in front of the transverse walls which divide the town into two almost equal parts, the western and the eastern, separating the Byzantine town from west to east into Lower, Middle and Upper town. The western transverse wall is located east of central gate in a distance of 150 m. The largest part of the total length of almost 155 m. is visible. It was built with stones which were mostly rough. A few blocks can be found among them. There are towers which are built in a similar way; some of them are quadrilateral and others circular. Can you locate all the towers and see the architectural differences?
Go to the next spot, which is the Episcopal Church, to take part in the 5th test.

NO

It doesn’t matter. Maybe a mistake was made with the identification of the location. The transverse walls divide the town into two almost equal parts, the western and the eastern, separating the Byzantine town from west to east into Lower, Middle and Upper town. The western transverse wall is located east of central gate in a distance of 150 m. The largest part of the total length of almost 155 m. is visible. It was built with stones which were mostly rough. A few blocks can be found among them. There are towers which are built in a similar way; some of them are quadrilateral and others cyclic. On the western side of the wall there are five quadrilateral towers and a circular one.
Proceed now to the 5th point which is the Episcopal Church.
