Tarragona's Roman Circus - Jess Jephcott, Colchester, England (2 Aug 2011 - 10:15)
We have a Roman circus in my town. It is the only one in Britain. I am travelling to Tarragona next year and am definitely going to see your circus. Can we arrange to be twin circus towns and to share information?
Romen Circus - Jduith Zayas-Bazan (27 Jul 2006 - 16:20)
I lived in Torredembarra, Tarragona for 10 years (now I live in the U.S.A) and I remember the circus, I love Roman architecture (not much here in the U.S).
I hope to soon go back. But we need pictures that would be great.
Thank you.
