Step back in time in this partially-restored Roman theatre. Small but informative museum area but the main attraction is stepping out into the arena itself. Try to avoid days when the cruise ships are docked! More

Cartagena is digging for its past - and the Teatro Romano offers an excellent view into the history of the city. Entrance fee very fair. More

Tiring but well worth a visit if you appreciate the cultural aspect. Also don't miss the Museo . Take the open top bus as there is much to see in the beautiful city of Cartagena. More

A beautiful open air theatre with breathtaking views across the city. When you are finished, take a walk in the city and the newly renovated esplanade. More

I work in the theatre myself, so I had a particular interest in wanting to see this, and was not disappointed. The exhibition from the entry level and explanotory material are well executed and build up a fantastic sense of... More
