Merida, a Roman city
A 35-40 minutes away we have another city that you can not miss in Extremadura (also a World Heritage Site). In a short one-morning getaway you have it very easy. You must visit the Roman Theater of Merida. It is not the same to see it in a photograph than to see it live. The whole complex of ruins that accompany the theater (amphitheater and circus), you will love it. And if you have time you should also take a look at the aqueduct and the temple of Diana.
