👍👍 The way this piece of ancient technology was put together is worth the visit. There is 1 passage for cars trough this aquaduct but a campervan wouldn't pass. Close to this masterpiece there is even a bigger one. Merida is worth the visit!!!

👍👍 A fantastic excavation of a truly amazing Roman Villa. It must be one of the largest villas I have ever seen..It has 3 Peristyles and 3 terraced settings on a gentle slope. Some of the frescoes still visible are stunning and the mosaic made with minute glass tesserae is a first for me. Lastly it has...

Roman ruins of a 1st-century structure with Corinthian columns & historical statues.

👍👍 Un parque con muchas zonas para todos, desde los más pequeños como adolescentes (tienen pista de baloncesto-fútbol), zonas para correr o zonas para estar con tu perro tranquilamente. En el atardecer si te vas a la zona de las 7 sillas (estructura) tendrás vistas espectaculares. Para los amantes de l...

Sizable, oval Roman circus ruins, used for chariot racing in ancient times & now preserved.

👍👍 A large, modern, concrete construction, of monumental dimension, makes a passage between the two banks of the Guadiana in Mérida, being a great oxygen ball for road traffic and that of people.

👍👍 Almost nothing! Two thousand years of history has, and is still there, as if it were the first day. A wonder to walk, run, sail or simply play sports, whether aquatic or not. Trails, paths and accesses to the interior perimeter of the reservoir, with a route of around 6 km. Generally in good cond...

👍👍 Historical memory monument. Great idea, excellent proposal, I think it brings added value to Mérida in general, and of course being in what was the old door of Mérida, presiding over this roundabout, is the best place where I could be. A must see, places you cannot miss. Access preferably on foot...

👍👍 Impresionante en toda su magnitud. Realmente merece la pena visitarlo, es una verdadera joya de la historia. Cada piedra y cada metro del espacio te evoca a otra época. Siempre que vamos lo disfrutamos, y siempre encantados con todo lo que aporta. Tanta historia en tan poco espacio, solo imaginarlo...

👍👍 One of the essentials to understand Extremadura, its idiosyncrasy, its origins and evolution, its livelihood, the importance of its flora and fauna with respect to Europe and, of course, its most authentic gastronomy (on-site tasting included with high local products) quality, 100% natural). This v...

👍👍 Very interesting crypt with Roman and Visigoth graves and a big grave with paintings ... Almost a mini chapel

👍👍 Un parque ideal para pasear, estar un buen rato y disfrutar del sonido de los pajarillos. Habitualmente bien cuidado, con buena vegetación, sobre todo llegando primavera. Sus árboles son muy antiguos. Espacio donde además, en algunas épocas del año se utiliza para marcadillo de invierno, feria de...

👍👍 La actual Concatedral de Santa María se levanta, según las investigaciones de importantes arqueólogos e historiadores, sobre la que fuera Catedral de Santa Jerusalén, sede del arzobispado visigodo de Emérita. Mas en mi blog NO SOLO SENDERISMO (gabifem).

Excavation site with Roman city wall & villa remnants, plus evidence of Visigoth & Islamic rule.

👍👍 Me gusta mucho este pequeño espacio de Mérida, donde poder pasear o sentarse un rato. Me gsuta tambien que cambien a menudo las plantas para darle color y vitalidad. Tambien me gusta el nombre que le han puesto. Estar al lado de la muralla de la Alcazaba le da ese punto de espacio histórico. Ser peq...

👍 Termas de origen romano en pleno casco histórico. Al lado del museo arqueológico y del teatro.
