The old town is surrounded by a street called the “Contramurada”, which follows the line where the old city walls once stood. The old city is charming with its different quarters, palaces and churches. The market is held in the courtyard of a beautifully restored former convent, its worth going along just to see the building. There are many watchtowers to explore around the city; a full day can easily be spent visiting the narrow alleys and sights
