It appears among the heritage objects considered for conservation and improvement in the official ARIS regional development programme.
Think of it as evidence of the historic city’s daily life, separate from the caves used for pilgrimage and the later museum displays. Archaeological remains can be less immediately legible than a standing monument, so an explanation from the museum makes the stop more useful. The programme listing does not confirm completed restoration, an operating exhibition or unrestricted entry. Confirm the exact visitable area before travelling specifically to the bath.
