Lugo Walking Tour
Lugo, Spain
Why Walk Lugo
Lugo's Roman walls — built in the 3rd century to defend the settlement of Lucus Augusti — are the only Roman walls in the world that remain intact along their entire circuit. The 2.1-kilometer wall, with its 85 towers, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and can be walked in its entirety along the top. Inside, the old town preserves a Roman layout, a Romanesque-Gothic cathedral, and lively tapas streets.
