Tarragona is, above all, a Mediterranean town that looks out onto the Mediterranean. The construction of the town began in 218 BC, when the Romans arrived. Over time it became the capital of a large Roman province, Hispania Citerior, which included more than half of the Iberian Peninsula.

This period has left a heritage of incalculable value which we can still feel today through the most emblematic monuments which have been preserved and the architectural remains that we may find when strolling around the town. Among them are the Roman circus, the Amphitheatre, the Paleochristian Necropolis, the Pretoria, the Forum and the Roman Walls.

A visit must be paid to the National Archaeological Museum of Tarragona, where we can find a rich collection of sculptures, mosaics and other vestiges of the culture of Tarraco. On the outskirts of the city impressive examples of Roman engineering can be seen, such as the Ferreres Roman Aqueduct and the Roman quarry in Mèdol.
