"Worth to go through the Ruta Caesaraugusta visiting the four archeological museums: the Forum, the Public Baths, the River Port and the Theater.
Ruins from and old big Roman theater. Nice to read and listen the explanation about the glory and decadence of it.
Need at least one hour to enjoy the visit.
They have a small coffee shop inside."

"The museum, which opened in 2003, displays the remains of the ancient Roman theater along with various archaeological artifacts and models from that time. It offers a glimpse into the city of Caesaraugusta, an important city in the Hispania Citerior Tarraconensis province of the Roman Empire. The history of the Roman theater dates back to the 1st century AD and is considered one of the largest in the province. The remains were discovered in 1972, thanks to a neighbor who alerted the local newspaper about the archaeological site during construction."

"A really beautifully presented site with a lot of thought put into the visitor experience and journey.
The site has been well conserved for future generations, so hopefully, it will be here for a long time to come."
