About a mile beyond the native village is the largest, awe inspiring wall you have ever seen! From this distance it is impossible to tell just how large it is, but it must be taller than most towers!
This massive wall of well-dressed stone blocks, now moss covered and showing vegetation where wind and weather have aged these massive cubes of rock and allowed growth to take place. Each block is at least six feet long and about half as high, and all seem to be set without mortar. The builders are impressively skilled in masonry and engineering both! It must be centuries old - who knows? In the center of its length are two valves of beams bound and studded by some unknown, purplish metal. Each of these gates is about 36 feet tall and some 12 feet wide.
Closer observation shows that the wall itself is nearly 40 feet thick at its base and over 20 feet thick at its summit. The base of the barrier is hewn from living rock, with huge stones, 12 to 18 feet long and half as broad and deep, forming the first four tiers.
