Free Walking Tour of Merida Downtown
Overview of the tour in Merida
A free tour to have a first contact with Merida. We will start at the Puerta de la Villa, where we will meet the archaeologists who brought the city back to life. We will walk along the main road of the Roman Merida, the Decumanus Maximus, and we will arrive at the Calatrava Market, originally from the 19th century.
Afterwards, we will enter the Parador Nacional de Turismo Vía de La Plata, a former 18th century convent where we will take a walk through history through Roman, Arab and Christian pieces... Next stop? The Arch of Trajan, so called because of a confusion. Next, we will contemplate the Convent of Santa Clara and the Co-cathedral of Santa María la Mayor, in both we will discover its Visigothic past. If Merida is characterized by something, it is for treasuring vestiges of all periods.
We will distinguish the Renaissance in the Casa de los Pacheco and a wonderful eclectic architecture in the Palacio de la China. We will end the tour in one of the most magical corners of the city: the Temple of Diana.
