About Tarragona

Tarragona is a Mediterranean port south-west of Barcelona, once the Roman city of Tarraco, with an amphitheatre by the sea and a Gothic cathedral.

Tarragona was Tarraco, a major Roman city in Spain, and its ruins form a World Heritage Site: an amphitheatre set on the shore, a circus whose vaults lie beneath the streets, forum remains and long stretches of city wall. Above the Roman walls, the medieval old town climbs to the Romanesque and Gothic cathedral, with a fine cloister, and the Balcó del Mediterrani, a viewing terrace, looks out over the sea.

Top-ranked sights in Tarragona: Tarragona Amphitheatre (Amfiteatre de Tarragona), Les Ferreres Aqueduct (Pont del Diable), House of Illusion.
