    The temple was built with granite from local quarries and covered with stucco. It was surrounded by columns on all sides. These rest on a podium three meters high. While the temple was in use, its interior was accessed by climbing a monumental staircase, now lost.
    Since the 17th century, it has been popularly known as the Temple of Diana, although we currently know that it was consecrated to Rome and the Emperor.

    In Tarragona, Mérida has the most Roman remains that are worth seeing one by one.
    The city of Mérida is on the Unesco World Heritage List. There is so much beauty to see!!

    Very impressive historical building from Roman times in the middle of today's city center. Contemporary witness from another time. Popular photo motif, interesting to visit, definitely one of the must-sees in Merida.
