Ramnous Ancient site (revisited for its second half)

A couple of months ago I have posted my visit to Ramnous ancient site with a bitter aftertaste due to the fact that access was allowed only to the first half of it (actually less than half).
You can find that post [here](https://peakd.com/hive-163772/@orestistrips/ramnous-and-brexiza-sanctuary-of-egyptian-gods).

|--------------------As you can see in the following screenshot my attempt then had ended like this:--------------------|

Now I'm back looking forward to see the rest!

I walk down this unpaved path:

And walk through this gross door which is open this time:

As as you walk down this ancient street heading North you can see ruins of ancient tombs:

A few meters later a small plateau generously though unintentionally offered by those marble ruins makes a great view point to the sea and the fortress of Ramnous that I can't wait to visit later:
![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/AM-JKLV9iigTn6CfdXFS5y7rmUTHD__qb_ninWD5fnAIReGemncU9ZcXHVSeh35Z-4gF_8ekp4xU6FEK6MFUBObKptQT-vKRSCbYACl3jH5y5VnZf_ONGkZQHRp3c0TPWTugrM8YeWSC8uVA1zvMfwNGm_Hfow=w1292-h969-no?authuser=0)

At this point every single step I take heading North makes my heart beat happier and my eyes open wider trying to capture the sea, the fortified town of Ramnous and all this beauty around:

The path becomes narrower and even challenging at some points for the non fit ones - not the best site to visit if it's your first walking days after an accident:

But does it worth the effort?

This walk brings me to the entrance of the fortress:

Under this penetrating sun on an already very hot day regardless the fact that I arrived as early in the morning as possible I enter Ramnous town much more effortlessly than invaders used to back in the day:

I'm instantly attracted by this cute circular stone house that I didn't manage to find more info about:

The East side of the town has great view to the sea and I guess there's a good reason behind the fact that most of those stone houses are located on this part:

This street going up leads to the Gymnasium and the Theater of Ramnous:
![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/AM-JKLXOBYRtgxII6f8EBn7p_Mwb3gPs7HK86Egg0k-xRl8b9YTTqJl5HY43FL6LrdFbLojM9qQg7RWY4XT0C_RWERnsCABvzEHAnG4y4-leoPqcDvoPsqnFqOUmW4u8OXtNXX_3D3_vcipA2yNgWTqaRGjQPg=w546-h970-no?authuser=0)

Not much survive today from either of them but you can see some of the VIP seats of the theater:

And here's view to both of them from the North end:

Here's another view to the stone houses as I look South trying to prevent the sun from killing my pictures:
