Can you imagine the great splendor that Augusta Emerita, the capital of Roman Lusitania, experienced? Centuries and centuries of events wait to be revealed through impressive temples and stone monuments that tell stories from ancient times. Did you know that Mérida was the origin of the famous Vía de la Plata, which connected western Hispania from south to north?
