Conimbriga Walking Tour: the incredible portuguese roman city

On this walking tour, let’s get to know Conimbriga, a city of enormous dimensions, a candidate for World Heritage status, which is constantly being excavated archaeologically. This is the most significant archaeological site in Portugal. We will visit the ruins of the Roman city (the fountain house, the walls, the Cantabrian House, the baths, the forum) and the town’s museum, filled with all kinds of artifacts found here like coins, knives, toys, glassware, pottery... Following that visit, should visitors be interested, we would go over to the nearby hamlet of Condeixa-a-Velha – just beside Conimbriga - where there are two twenty minute walks either directionally around them [an easy stroll], so one can observe the remains of an ancient Roman Amphitheatre archway structure; during these strolls back through those hamlets again, they offer up another panorama viewing point across parts of Conimbriga itself…I believe adding this part onto today’s itinerary could prove very rewarding indeed because few people ever make their way out here! You meet your Guide outside the main Entrance Hall area within the grounds of the Municipal Archaeological Museum situated inside Conimbriga proper …and he introduces himself holding aloft both his water flask AND T shirt/sweatshirt coloured GREEN & possibly wearing a light weight coat due to chilly weather conditions prevailing ...our Tour concludes then exactly where it began i.e., directly opposite said aforementioned Archaeology Museum building location.. The Town Of Conimbriga lies nestled amidst Central PORTUGAL somewhere roughly halfway along the road link connecting LISBON TO PORTO cities respectively…(it sits quite literally adjacent thereto)…& also only about TWENTY MINUTES away driving distance wise FROM THE CITY OF COIMBRA,…right alongside its neighbouring township known locally AS CONDEIXA A VELHA.…For getting yourself down To Conimbriga From Within Coimbria City Centre Itself?…Best options available might involve taking Either a Taxi Cab OR using UBER ride service alternatively perhaps even catching One Off Local Bus Service instead….but generally speaking though…? Using Your Own Personal Car Is Usually Most Convenient Option Here…! There IS Ample Parking Space Available At Site Plus Also Café Facilities Present Along With Restrooms And Restaurant Services Too..! If You Search For "Conimbriga" Online Y
