Nice panorama and impressive site?but at the risk of sounding like a 
barbarian, I have to say that in most cases ruins like these do not do that 
much for me. During the past 2-3 years, I have visited Pompei, Rome (a few 
times), Acropolis etc. And every time I had the feeling of having done my 
duty but then I moved on to enjoy the cities in question. This was 
especially true in Rome?the Colliseum is OK, but I enjoyed the living places 
like Campo di Fiori much more.

Cheers,
Nathan
