Lixus
Overlooking the Loukkos River, Lixus are lonely ruins, in
an advanced state of decay. Much of the ruins are
still underground, protected from destructive visitors
and locals who chopped out the face of Neptune in the main
Forum mosaic. There are no guards or fees, just a
broken and rusted gate with an old man occasionally
haranguing visitors for a tip. You will likely have
the entire place to yourself to enjoy and contemplate the
existence of people who came before you, walking the same
soil.
