From the bastions near the museums, you can look down into a Roman amphitheater dating from the end of the first century, set into a natural curve in the hillside’s rocky slope. This is the city’s most important Roman remain, and when it is not closed for archaeological study or restoration work, it is used for concerts and performances. It is sometimes possible to visit it with a guide when it is closed for restoration.
