Uauuu impressive!
Very interesting archeological site which is also maintained as a public park. The information plaque displayed in the place indicates that it's date back to the Gallo-Roman period of a city once known as Vesontio which is now Besançon. The semicircular formation preserved is supposedly the remains of theatre dating back to the late second or third century. There was once the Saint John the Baptist church built on this site until the French Revolution. The most visible is the triumphal arch, Porte Noire and eight Corinthian columns. It's quite an impressive and interesting site to explore and suitable for all ages.
It's really cool and chill. It has a pretty interesting background story of archeology and stuff. Would recommend to take a little break and observe nature (there's benches in the park and nice buildings all around). The monument in the middle of the whole place is quite tall and interesting. Try to read the inscriptions on the stones!!
Beautiful!
What a view from on top!
