Segobriga was a surprise discovery and we enjoyed our afternoon at the archaeological site.
There are many more Roman remains in Spain, these pictures are from the city of Mérida in Extremadura.
Emerita Augusta was the capital city of the most westerly Roman Province of the Empire in Lusitania and the most important Roman city in Iberia.
Today, on account of its past, Mérida is a sister city of Rome.
Haven’t been here yet. Must put it on the list.

got to Frankfurt and Ssalzberg, loved them. I prefer the Germanic and Nordic peoples to the French & Italian, haven’t had any problems with Greeks, never been there. Greece, would have loved to have gone too late now

I haven’t been to a country in Europe that I didn’t like! Greece is near the top of my list.

It wasn’t the country it was the people.
