This is an archaeological site of a Hellenistic city, offering beautiful views of the nearby lake. Built in a strategically important location on the slopes of a 720-metre-high trapezoidal hill, it towered majestically over Lake Petra and the fertile plain. Petra flourished in the 2nd century BC. Thanks to the Via Egnatia, it developed into an important trading centre with lively exchanges with many Greek cities. However, the settlement was destroyed and abandoned in the middle of the 1st century AD during the Roman civil war.
