Amphitheatre of Mérida
The arena and the seating. Today, only these lowest tiers survive. Once the games had fallen into disuse, the stone of the upper tiers was quarried for use elsewhere.

Peristyle garden, Mérida
The Roman peristyle garden, adapted from the Greeks, was primarily used to beautify large houses and public areas and secondly, create a recreational space. An excellent example of a peristyle garden is behind the stage in the Roman Theatre in Mérida. It served both as a recreation and rest area.

Cerro del Hierro
The Cerro del Hierro is located near the town of San Nicolás del Puerto, in the Sierra Norte de Sevilla Natural Park. This spectacular landscape is the result of activity by nature and by man. The presence of iron in the rocks in the hills led to mining activity in this area until the last century. This activity left a landscape of unique shapes and colours, featuring needles, corridors, karstic fields and sink-holes, caves, chasms, travertines and limestone pavements.
