Nice to hear
Hey @xpilar, these photos from Mérida are absolutely breathtaking! The sheer scale and preservation of the Roman ruins are incredible. It's fascinating to see how history comes alive through architecture. I especially love the amphitheater; imagining the events that unfolded there is quite something.
Thanks for sharing these stunning visuals and sparking my curiosity about this historical gem in Extremadura. Have you visited other Roman sites? I'd love to hear more about your experiences and insights into ancient architecture. It really makes you think about the people who built and lived in these structures.
