The roman past of Tarragona is printed on many places of the city. Many monuments are testimony of that time; the amphitheater, the city walls, the aqueduct or the circus are just a few examples. Furthermore, in the city, there are yearly festivals such as Història viva which stands out for its history reconstruction shows, an essential activity to understand the function of the different monuments of Tarraco that also allow us to get step into the shoes of the people who lived in that colony more than 2000 years ago.
Another yearly festival is Tàrraco Viva where everything goes around the military and daily life; legions, theater, gladiators, home, cooking, writing, engineering or fashion. During this days you can enjoy many shows such as gladiatorial combat, military trainings or tasting the kitchen of that time.
