Cultural Highs

We managed to visit an incredible site called the Hypogeum. Dating from 3600 BC, it is a underground temple and burial site and predates the Pyramids and Stonehenge. They only allow 80 people in per day and it’s booked up for a couple of weeks in advance. We decided to chance our luck, turn up and hope for a cancellation. We had bit of a wait but were successful. The complex is an amazing construction, especially considering its age, consisting of 3 layers with beautifully domed rooms and massive construction. Well worth the effort.
