The Sinagoga is just a small empty room, restored as much as possible. It's an intimate look of a time long ago. Quite moving. More

This was well preserved but extremely tiny. Even though we knew the general area, from our map, we needed to ask a couple of people before we found it. Entry was supposed to be 30 cents but no one asked for money. More
