   Our visit here was a bit of a disappointment. As BF's only World Heritage Site I expected more. The site itself is a collection of ruined walls (11th century-ish) of a fortified settlement built in connection with gold mining/trading. The ruins needed to be brought to life but unfortunately our local guide was both confused and confusing. He completely failed to provide a coherent explantion of the site's significance or layout.
