Today, I take you to a site that I often pass by doing my day-to-day doings–Las Murallas (The Walls)…
Once an imposing expanse of fortified walls that extended throughout what is now the city center, Las Murallas were built from the I-III century A.D. (construction started in the reign of Tiberius), when Zaragoza was the Ancient Roman settlement of Caesaragusta…
Unfortunately, as the centuries passed and the city expanded, the wall was steadily dismantled until this was all that was left…But hey–at least we still have some of it!!…

Looks interesting. I do wonder what locals have to say about some of this stuff, whether or not they have thoughts about it.
