Best preserved Roman Forts - Theodosius the Great - 03-13-2005

Avete,<br>
<br>
I'm wondering which of the surviving Roman military forts is best preserved.<br>
<br>
To my limited knowledge the best preserved seems to be the Diocletianic fort in the Jordanian desert (Qasr Bsheir).<br>
<br>
Are there better preserved forts anywhere in the Roman world ?<br>
<br>
<br>
Valete.<br>

Diocletianus palace in Split (Croatia) and Galerius palace Felix Romuliana (Gamzigrad, eastern Serbia) are preserved to some extent, although they are not millitary but imperial fortified palaces. <p></p><i></i>
