It is one of the structures from the Byzantine period. The entrance to the underground city is formed in two ways. 1- via rock stair steps over a large rock block (in the form of an open staircase) 2- a straight entrance from the ground; the steps at the end part of the entrance are in a collapsed condition. The ground entrance, however, has not been fully resolved due to various rock breakages. The underground city is 20 meters deep
