Level 9 1 Trophy

Overall rating 8

Overall Guide : A rapidly modernising town with much to recommend. Post earthquake (1987?) the town has developed and in recent years paid much more attention to tourism. The sea road has many great eating and drinking places with modern hotels too. The old part... more of the town close to the market has lots of quaint charm in its back streets with many great shops.

Not to be missed Old town , seafront eating places , caste
