The Roman Amphitheater and the National Museum of Roman Art are also a must.
In addition to Rome, the Arab heritage is also present in Merida, the main example being the fabulous Alcazaba.
As well as the historical-artistic heritage, visitors can enjoy nature in Cornalvo Natural Park or visit the bathing areas of the Proserpina reservoir, one of the great recreational areas in the city.
