old tombs and residences



mosaics in the church



zoom in of one of the figures

another zoom in, this was one of the more scandalous mosaics

pillars made of blue marble

view of the cliffs with 'clouds of doom' rolling in


collapsed pillar that looks kind of like it's melting

the cathedral... it's about 50 meters tall and 48 meters wide. it's a 45 min to and hour hike up small, winding steps, up a mountain. jeff and i rode donkeys up. it was an interesting and rather horrifying experience. more on that later...


the souvenir stand/refreshment shop by the cathedral, high up in the mountains

views from the cathedral, up in the mountains.
