Ptolemais
Ptolemais was in fact the first site i visited in Libya after a flight from Tripoli to Benghazi and than by bus to Ptolemais. My first impression - there is nothing to see but a museum.Covered with sand, the town's ruins survived in a relatively good shape to our times. West of the city stands a conspicuous and tower-like Hellenistic mausoleum, and there's also a Greek theater cut into the hillside behind the city.A must thing to do is to visit the museum itself before getting on the site - with a little bit of luck you will meet a perfect guide as introduction.
