El castrejon de Capote situado en Higuera la Real (Badajoz) junto al Parque Natural Sierra de Aracena (Huelva). Se trata de un poblado de origen Celta amurallado, ubicado en las confluencias de los arroyos Sillo y Alamo, su forma de espigon le dota de pronunciadas pendientes por tres de sus cuatro lados, lo que hace que fuera un lugar de dificil acceso excepto por su extremo oriental.

One of the best preserved roman ruin in Europe. Unmissable. See it together with the ampitheatre next door and be sure to read the notices which explain very well the djfferent gladiators who fought there.

A well preserved view into Roman history and the life of a gladiator. The site is well worth a visit.

Most people coming to Merida want to see the many remains from the Roman Period. In my opinion Templo de Diana is a sentral part of those remains and must not be missed. It is fantastic that this temple has survived all these years and still can be presented in such a good condition. What a Place Merida must have been 2.000 years ago!
