Nice place but nothing much to see here and around compared to other parts of the city. If you don’t have much time to walk around, no need to come to this place. Because it’s not that remarkable.

Nice view from up here

Very nice citadel to admire, rich with its own history. The view point on the water ways is breathtaking.
