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.

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 .

a day in tarragona
Last weekend I went to Tarragona for another day trip. I fell in love with their cathedral.
I took the train from Barcelona Sants which was 6,45€ one way and it took 1 hour and 10 minutes. It was pretty cheap but there is no assigned seat number and many people travel standing up which was a shock to me. I never seen such a thing before. So I suggest either buying bus tickets or buying train tickets from Barcelona, Passeig de Gracia because I suppose that is the first stop of the train so you can sit down.
Tarragona Cathedral became one of my favourite places of all time. The normal ticket was 5€ and the student ticket was 4€. I have spent a little over 3 hours there. I wanted to see all the details and stay there for a long time. Also the garden of the cathedral was amazing too.
I also went to four main Roman sites in the city. The tickets for all four of them was 7,4€ and as a student I paid 3,65€. You have to pay with credit card if you purchase the ticket at the sites but you can purchase the ticket by cash from tourist information centers, which is what I did.
Here are the places from the video:
▫︎ Tarragona Cathedral
▫︎ Circ Roma
▫︎ Passeig Arqueologic
▫︎ Plaça del Sedassos
▫︎ Roman Forum
▫︎ Castellers Monument
▫︎ Amphitheater
▫︎ La Rambla

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.

Tarragona is a port city located in northeast Spain on the Costa Daurada by the Mediterranean Sea. It is the capital of the Province of Tarragona, and part of Tarragonès and Catalonia.
Tarragona in Spain, Amphithéâtre, World Heritage Site by UNESCO, tourism, hotels, carnival
Geographically, it is bordered on the north by the Province of Barcelona and the Province of Lleida. The city has a population of 132,199 (2014).
Ancient remains[edit]
Amphithéâtre of Tarragona and the Mediterranean Sea
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 the town, 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. 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.[17]
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.
Religious buildings[edit]
The Tarragona Cathedral, dating to the 12th-13th centuries, combining Romanesque and Gothic architectural elements.
The convent of the Poor Clares, near the walls
The convent of Santa Teresa
The church of the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin, the parish church of the port

The Jesuit college was turned into barracks; their church, however, has been restored to them
The convent of the Dominican Order, now the town hall
The archiepiscopal palace, situated on the site of the ancient capitol, one tower of which still remains. It was rebuilt in the 19th century.
Near the sea, in the Roman amphitheatre, are the remains of a church called Santa Maria del Miracle (Holy Mary of the Miracle), which belonged to the Knights Templar. It was afterwards used by the Trinitarian Order and was later converted into a penitentiary. It was demolished around 1915.[18]
Tarragona Cathedral.
The seminary of Sant Pau and Santa Tecla was founded in 1570 by the cardinal archbishop, Gaspar Cervantes de Gaeta, and was the first to comply with the decrees of the Council of Trent. In 1858 Archbishop José Domingo Costa y Borrás built a fourth wing. Benito Villamitjana built a new seminary behind the cathedral in 1886, in the courtyard of which stands the old chapel of Sant Pau. Pope Leo XIII raised this to the rank of a pontifical university.
50 km (31.07 mi) north of the city is Poblet Monastery, founded in 1151 by Ramon Berenguer IV, Count of Barcelona, which was used for sepultures of the kings.
