In the past 5 years there has been a massive building project on the site.  The last phase meant employment for 6,000 local workers who had no other hope of jobs.
If there are people living here who have not ventured up this end of th motorway, then it is a 'must' and then go on to visit thr marble quarries of Macael.  These quarries have been mined since the Romans discovered it!
