A wonderful historical place. When you wander inside, you dive into the depths of history and feel as if you are living in those times. These places need to be introduced and everyone, especially young people, should see these places and learn about their country and history. But I am very against these fees. Learning my history with high wages in the territory of my own country is something I feel ashamed of.
