Byzantium Fortress -- Avdat

After the Roman residential Quarter at the Avdat Site, the path runs through the South Gate into the rectangular Byzantine fortress.  A vantage point in the southeast corner offers a view over the whole extent of the site with its (partially restored) walls and towers, a large cistern in the center of the courtyard, and the remains of a Late Byzantine Chapel against the North Wall.  A passage in the North Wall gives access to the Roman Military Camp, which measures 90m (100 yds) each way.  The fortress along with the town of Avdat is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
