Immense citadelle impressionnante entouré de grands remparts rouges et de douves. Facile d’accès avec parking en face de la citadelle. Musée intéressant avec différentes pièces de différentes époques. Vous trouverez également tout proche une grande église orthodoxe avec une décoration intérieure très atypique.
