Tarragona Walking Tour
Tarragona, Spain
Why Walk Tarragona
Tarragona was Tarraco — capital of the largest Roman province in Hispania and one of the great cities of the western Roman Empire. The archaeological ensemble is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with a 2nd-century amphitheater overlooking the sea, the remains of a circus, forum walls, and an aqueduct outside town. The medieval old town was built directly on top of the Roman structures.
