Interesting rock formation that was used by people a long time ago. Beautifully situated in nature, there is also a hut with a barbecue area.

The Nau winds its way through the middle of the city and invites you to linger. In the summer, licking an ice cream from the Italian ice cream parlor right next door is wonderful, and the ice cream is very tasty!
