There is a square wall in front of the platform, called the inner city, which is made of stacked stones. The platform is 5 meters high and is located at a commanding height. You can look over the entire city and the reservoir in the north outside the inner city. The terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, making it a battleground for military strategists of all ages.
