Kozan Castle

TIME : 2016/2/19 2:49:08

Towering above the surrounding plains, stunning Kozan Castle stretches some 900m along a narrow ridge. It was built by Leo II in the late 12th century. Inside the castle is a mess of ruined buildings, but continue upward to the many-towered keep on the right. On the left is a massive tower, which once held the royal apartments. In all there are 44 towers and lookouts and the remains of a bedesten.
