An impressive place to take the stairs up to the citadel.

Great! Dogs are welcome. Self-guided tour at your own pace; the cave is very pretty. It's a nice break from the stress. €11/person, cash or check only. Sheltered tables available. The big downside: is that all services are closed between 12:00 p.m. and 2:00 p.m. (outside of peak season). You can't even get a drink if you arrive during this time.
