And you can tell. From the \u201cPart Alta\u201d restaurants, which proudly exhibit its millenary past, going along the number of stores, capable as they have been of integrating the remains and, at the same time, increasing its value together with the store\u2019s. It is about traces talking about history, therefore, past and present, and that thanks to this, they become an extraordinary pillar on which future ought to be constituted. Tarragona is, in fact, a city where stones bear witness to the passage of years, centuries, and also, millenniums. Along the years, though, this legacy remained covered up, concealed using plaster or bricks. Now, on the other hand, the appearance and preservation of the architectural remains from the past is something to be proud of, awaking a sense of belonging to a city built under the umbrella of Cesar Augustus, together with an extraordinary and original legacy.<\/p>\n<p>The urban skeleton of the T\u00e0rraco from the 1st century has become, throughout history, an important heritage on which to base the modern city. The \u201cPart Alta\u201d of Tarragona is not just primarily rich regarding archaeological remains of the roman period, but also medieval. <\/p>\n<p>If we position ourselves at the \u201cpla\u00e7a de la Font\u201d, right in the middle of the roman Circus spine, leaving the \u201cPalau Municipal\u201d behind us, we can start a route on which to locate a large part of the monument, erected on the late 1st century AD in order to welcome a number of performances and, above all, the chariot races (quadrigae, bigae\u2026). With a length of 325 metres, the conservation of the T\u00e0rraco\u2019s Circus has been partial thanks to the fact that it has been reused, since the 5th century, as the foundations for future constructions. Now, on the other hand, sometimes the process is the other way round, and the restoration of premises and ground floors located on the fa\u00e7ade facing the \u201cpla\u00e7a de la Font\u201d has allowed the rediscovering of the real structure, and its archaeological and historical interpretation. <\/p>\n<p>Wandering around the Tarragona of the 21st century under the guidance of Joan Mench\u00f3n, main archaeologist in Tarragona, really lets anyone see it from a different point of view. One by one, each of the ground floors of the fa\u00e7ade facing the square, have been integrating roman structures. Thus, <strong>Santa Gemma\u2019s Jeweller\u2019s<\/strong> shows, as a part of its fa\u00e7ade, a part of the Circus\u2019s podium cut in section. Daniel Mart\u00ed, owner of the store, talks about it proudly, while explaining that even more remains can be found in the building\u2019s interior, also to be added to the store in the future.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tarragonaexperience.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/La-Caixa_Circ_ManelRGranell.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tarragonaexperience.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/La-Caixa_Circ_ManelRGranell-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"La Caixa\/ Manel R.

Its restoration was peculiar, partly because of its high economical cost, but mainly because of the spectacular result of the intervention. Looking through the financial entity\u2019s glass door, one can discern the partly rebuilt terraces, and also a bit of the Circus structure. It really takes one\u2019s breath away to actually perceive the magnitude of the roman public constructions, and above all, how it has been preserved throughout the centuries going, as it did, through all kinds of vicissitudes.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tarragonaexperience.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/JoieriaPersonal2_ManelRGranell.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tarragonaexperience.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/JoieriaPersonal2_ManelRGranell-694x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Joieria Personal\/ Manel R.

Mench\u00f3n highlights, for example, the intervention made at the <strong>Personal Jeweller\u2019s<\/strong>, 36 Major St, where its owner, Antonio G\u00f3mez, defines himself as a Part Alta \u201clover\u201d, a passion still lasting since he was 17. The establishment, located in an old gothic palace belonging to the Rocabert\u00ed family \u2013bound to the construction of the Cathedral\u2019s cloister\u2013, is a beauty: with a coffered ceiling from the 15th century, medieval arches shining with all its splendour, and even a courtyard where the workshop is set. G\u00f3mez boasts about the final result, with some details such as a mirror on which the Rocabert\u00ed\u2019s family crest is reflected, otherwise impossible to see for visitors. The jeweller also says that his customers, among which we can find very different origins, such as the United States of America or Canada, do particularly appreciate the singularity of a restoration, which can actually be described as exemplary. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tarragonaexperience.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/RoziArt_ManelRGranell.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tarragonaexperience.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/RoziArt_ManelRGranell-865x1024.jpg\" alt=\"RoziArt\/ Manel R.

The discovery, made about fifteen years ago, entailed a mandatory move of the commercial activity, as recalled by the owner, Pilar Qu\u00edlez.
