Tarragona 'the Balcony of the Mediterranean' is, owing to the Romans, arguably the most elegant city of the Iberian peninsula. Just like in Barcelona, Tarragona's main promenades are called 'Rambla', where you can see the beautiful modernista buildings. Tarragona also has a beautiful beach which you can admire from the clifftop 'Balco del Mediterrani'. This balcony divides the city into an old and new part.
The Romans called it Tarraco and the huge part of Hispania they conquered was called Tarraconensis. The Roman walls surrounding the Old Town were built on even older huge stones that had been placed there to fortify the hilltop town long before the Romans arrived
These days is is a thriving city, centered around the elegant Rambla Nova and expanding away from the sea into uninteresting suburban zones of apartment blocks
Foro provincial de Tarragona. Forum provincial de Tarragona.
Su contrucción se fija hacía el año 70, en época del emperador Vespasiano.
Uno de los foros más extensos -de casi 8 Ha.- del imperio romano. Además es, sin duda, del que más aportaciones documentales nos quedan.
El motivo se su construcción fué la necesidad de tener un gran centro para la adminstración social y política de la capital de una gran provincia, que comprendía más de 300 ciudades y necesitaba alojar a sus representantes, convirtiendose asi en el Concilium Provinciae Hispaniae Citerioris.
Evolucionó sobre dos terrazas adaptadas a la topografía de la zona. Nos quedan restos en buen estado de estructuras y algunos elementos de su decoración. De estos, se deduce la importacia que la ciudad tenía dentro del imperio. Posiblemente los materiales, los profesionales y los arquitectos fueran de la misma ciudad se Roma.
Es la ciudad pionera en la construcción del templos de culto imperial, que luego serían imprescindibles en todas las ciudades Hispánicas: Corduba, Emerita Augusta.
Este recinto de culto Imperial, situado en la terraza superior, comprendía una plaza rectángular rodeada por un pórtico de columnas con capiteles compuestos, que medía de 150 m. por 130 m. Se accedía a él desde la plaza central del foro provincial, mediante unas escaleras. El templo de culto imperial está situado al fondo del pórtico, en su centro. Era octástilo -ocho columnas en la fachada- y medía 24 m. de ancho.
Its construction is set towards the year 70, during the reign of Emperor Vespasian.
One of the larger forums, nearly 8 acres - the Roman Empire. It is also undoubtedly more input than we are documentaries.
The reason is its construction was the need for a big center for social and political ADMINISTRATION of the capital of a province that included more than 300 cities and needed to accommodate its representatives, becoming the Citerioris Hispaniae Provinciae Concilium.
Evolved on two terraces adapted to the topography of the area. We still remains in good structures and elements of decoration. Of these, the import is clear that the city had in the empire. Possibly materials, professionals and architects were in the same city Rome.
It is the pioneer city in the construction of imperial temples of worship, which would then be necessary in every city Hispanic: Corduba, Emerita Augusta.
The Imperial cult compound, located on the upper terrace, comprising a rectangular square surrounded by a portico of columns with composite capitals, measuring 150 m. by 130 m. The entrance to it from the central square of the provincial forum by some stairs. The imperial cult temple is located at the bottom of the porch in the middle. It was octástilo-eight columns on the facade, and was 24 m. wide.

El Circo romano de Tarraco es un edificio romano conservado en la actual Tarragona (España). Se construyó impulsado políticamente por el Concilium provinciae Hispaniae citerioris, reunión anual de los representantes de la provincia Citerior, y se ubicó muy cerca del Fórum Provincial de Tarraco, dentro del recinto amurallado en la terraza inferior de la Parte Alta de la ciudad de Tarraco, capital de la provincia Hispania Citerior Tarraconensis.

Spain - Part VI - Tarragona - 4K
During this episode in our multi-part Spain series, Shawn and Kevin of Travel by Numbers visit Tarragona.
Founded before the 5th century BC, Tarragona is the capital of the Province of Tarragona and is a port city in northeastern Spain’s Catalonia region. The city has a population of just over 200,000. Many ancient ruins remain from its time as the Roman colony of Tarraco. The Amfiteatre Romà is a 2nd-century arena facing the Mediterranean, the Necropolis contains Roman tombs, and traces of the Forum stand among the alleys of the walled, medieval Old Town. A walkway along the ramparts, the Passeig Arqueològic, has sweeping views of the city.
Dedicated to Saint Tecla, Tarragona’s cathedral was built on approximately the same site of what was once the Roman temple. The temple formed a part of the provincial forum, which was the seat of the Tarragona provincial government in the 1st century A.D. and was built around two terraced squares. The upper square (the imperial cult complex) was surrounded by a portico, large portions of which can be seen today in the cloister of the city's cathedral. At one end was a large hall, which has been identified as the cella, or inner sanctuary, of a magnificent temple of the imperial cult.
Construction of the cathedral began in the 12th century in the Romanesque style and continued throughout the Gothic period. The building was consecrated in 1331; however, it could not be finished due to the Black Death, which razed the region. The soaring entrance and rose window of its façade are one of the city’s most emblematic images.
Located between Via Augusta and the provincial forum, Tarragona's 1st century circus was once used to hold horse and chariot races. Its original capacity has been estimated at 30,000 spectators. Unusually, it was located within the city limits and is thus endowed with several atypical architectural features. It is considered one of the best-preserved circuses in the West, although some of the original structure remains hidden under old 19th-century buildings. The Praetorian is a Roman-era tower that once housed the stairs that connected the lower city to the provincial forum by way of the circus, to which it is connected by means of underground passageways. It stands at one of the corners of the vast rectangle of the provincial forum square. In the 12th century, it was transformed into a palace for the monarchs of the Crown of Aragon. It was subsequently used as a prison.
The Roman Amphitheatre is an oval structure built in the 2nd century overlooking the sea. Its stands were carved directly out of the underlying bedrock.
Holding up to 14,000 spectators, it was the scene of fights between gladiators and against wild beasts, as well as public executions. In the year 259 A.D., the Bishop Fructuoso and his deacons Augurio and Eulogio were burned alive within its confines. In the early 6th century, a Visigoth basilica was built on the site, which was eventually replaced by the mediaeval Santa Maria del Miracle (Our Lady of the Miracle) church.

Places to see in ( Tarragona - Spain ) Tarragona Amphitheatre
Places to see in ( Tarragona - Spain ) Amfiteatre
Tarragona Amphitheatre is an amphitheatre from the Roman city of Tarraco, now Tarragona, in the Catalonia region of north-east Spain. It was built in the 2nd century AD, sited close to the forum of this provincial capital.
Tarragona Amfiteatre was built at the end of 1st century BC and the start of 2nd century BC, down from the walls and facing the sea. There are remains of a large inscription dating to the reign of Elagabalus (3rd century AD) and located in the podium.
In 259, during the persecution of Christians by Emperor Valerian, the city's bishop, Fructuosus, and his deacons, Augurius and Eulogius, were burned alive. After Christianity became the official religion of the empire, the amphitheatre lost its original functions. The following years some of the building's stones were used to build a basilica to commemorate the three martyrs. Tombs were excavated in the arena and funerary mausoleums were annexed to the church.
The Islamic invasion of Spain started a period of abandonment of the area, which lasted until the 12th century, when a church was built over the remains of the Visigothic church, in Romanesque style. This was demolished in 1915.
In 1576, Tarragona Amphitheatre became the convent for the order of the Trinity until 1780 when it became a prison for prisoners who were constructing the port. After closing the prison, it was abandoned up to the mid-20th century when work was started to recover the theatre, funded by the Bryant Foundation.

A walkway along the ramparts, the Passeig Arqueològic, has sweeping views of the city.
Tarragona is a port city located in northeast Spain on the Costa Daurada by the Mediterranean Sea. Tarragona is the capital of the Province of Tarragona, and part of Tarragonès and Catalonia. Geographically, Tarragona is bordered on the north by the Province of Barcelona and the Province of Lleida.
The Roman ruins of Tarraco have been designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Part of the bases of large Cyclopean walls near the Cuartel de Pilatos are thought to pre-date the Romans. The building just mentioned, a prison in the 19th century, is said to have been the palace of Augustus. The second century Tarragona Amphitheatre near the seashore was extensively used as a quarry after the fall of the Western Roman Empire, and but few vestiges of it now remain. A circus c. 450 metres (1,480 ft) long, was built over in the area now called Plaça de la Font, though portions of it are still to be traced. Throughout the town Latin, and even apparently Phoenician, inscriptions on the stones of the houses mark the material used for buildings in the town.
Two ancient monuments, at some little distance from Tarragona , have, however, fared rather better. The first of these is Les Ferreres Aqueduct, which spans a valley about 4 kilometres (2 miles) north of the city of Tarragona . It is 217 m (712 ft) in length, and the loftiest arches, of which there are two tiers, are 26 m (85 ft) high. There is a monument about 6 km (4 mi) along the coast road east of the city, commonly called the Tower of the Scipios; but there is no authority for assuming that they were buried here.
Other Roman buildings include:
The Roman walls
The capitol, or citadel
The Amphitheatre
The Roman circus
The Pretorium - Tower
The Provincial and Colonial fora
The Necropolis
The palace of Augustus, called the house of Pilate
The so-called tower, or sepulchre, of the Scipios
Arch of Sura, or of Bara
The Aurelian Way.
The city is also home to the National Archaeological Museum of Tarragona.
Tarragona is home to a large port and the Rovira i Virgili University. Much of its economic activity comes from a large number of chemical industries located south of the city. The main living heritage is the Popular Retinue, a great parade of dances, bestiary and spoken dances- and the human towers. They specially participate in Santa Tecla Festival. They are so popular in Tarragona and also in all Catalonia that they have got their own home. It is called Casa de la Festa, Festivities House, where you can visit them all the year.
A number of beaches, some awarded a Blue Flag designation, line the Mediterranean coast near the city of Tarragona . Tarragona is located near the resort of Salou and the amusement park PortAventura, one of the largest in Europe. The city of Tarragona is served by Tarragona railway station, and is located a few kilometres away from Reus Airport, which has many low-cost destinations and charter-flights (over a million passengers per year).

Places to see in ( Tarragona - Spain ) Circ Roma
The circus of Tarraco was located in the city's pomerium , taking advantage of lands that, from the founding period, were state-owned. Located in the upper part of Tarragona , parallel to the Rambla Vella, and in some parts, it maintains an exceptional state of conservation. It is the building where the horse races were developed, as well as those of beams and quads with capacity for 20,000 people, where the carriage races were carried out. It was built during the rule of Emperor Domitian (81-96 AD) and was in operation until the 5th century AD.
Circ Roma construction responds to a unitary project that is based on the concession by Vespasian from ius latii to the Hispanic provinces around 73 AD. It is for this reason that the circus will be part of a large monumental complex structured on three terraces that will become the reflection of the State in the province.
The provincial forum , articulated on two levels, will occupy the highest part of the hill. The circus would occupy the terrace under the foral set. This would be delimited by the tardorepublicana wall in the West and East, the present Avenue of the Roman Empire and Paseo de San Antonio, respectively; for the provincial foral structure on the northern side, perpetuated in the streets of Ferrers and Tiles; and by the Augusta road, in its passage through the city, on the southern side.
Circ Roma is for this adaptation to the topography of the land and the space available that the building has dimensions and features that make it unique.
