Plunged by the damming of Torrejón-Tajo, the Roman bridge and the former Arabic citadel of the 10th century are nowadays in the oblivion.
In the former road Madrid - Lisbon, already out of use, we can find historical places that wind the forests of oaks and blockheads. While the fisherman finds rich places for the fishing of the Sander, Bullhead and Black-Bass in this beautiful environment.

Roman Bridge and Arabian Citadel Ruins - Caceres visitor guide showing a virtual tour of 'Roman Bridge and Arabian Citadel Ruins' linked to an interactive map with local and travel information. 360° panoramas from Extremadura.

This Roman bridge crosses an inlet on the Tagus River just south of Almaraz, a small town near to Cáceres in Extremadura, Spain. Next to it are the ruins of a 10th century Arabian citadel. The road here is no longer used, as the nearby A5 / E10 highway provides a much faster link between Almaraz and Cáceres. For those that do venture along it, the scenery is beautiful, and a little further along it curves north crossing the Tagus River via the Charles Bridge, known locally as Ambalat Bridge.

The Tagus River, part of which can be seen in this virtual tour panorama, is one of the most important rivers in Spain and the longest on the Iberian Peninsula. Called the 'Tajo' in Spanish and 'Tejo' in Portuguese, it flows west for 1,040km from Fuente de García in the Albarracín Mountains of Spain to the Atlantic Ocean at Lisbon in Portugal. Tagus River is heavily used for drinking water and several hydroelectric dams to generate electricity.

Car: The Roman Bridge and Arabian Citadel are about 6km south of Almaraz. Almaraz is about 160km east of Portugal, 95km from Cáceres and 80km west of Talavera de la Reina.
