While we're impatiently waiting for our upcoming trips for this year, we decided to make the waiting less boring and go for a quick weekend escape and visit Tarragona, only 1 hour by train from Barcelona. I've been in Tarragona a couple of times before and I always get enchanted by this Spanish beauty that feels like mini Rome looking over the Mediterranean.
What used to be Tarraco in ancient Roman times and one of the most important Roman settlements on the Iberian Peninsula, nowadays is a buzzing city that at the same time feels very calming. A perfect mix of ancient Roman monuments and remains, narrow colorful streets and city's position above the sea will enchant even the pickiest traveler.
Today I'm going to show you my favorite part, a huge open promenade above the sea, known as the Balcony of the Mediterranean. You can see the port of Tarragona, a beach called Miracle and Roman amphitheatre snuggled between Mediterranean greenery and vast blue horizon. An urban legends says that if you touch the iron fence, it will bring you luck. Who knows... ;)
...Stay tuned for part 2...

Mientras estamos esperando que empiecen los viajes que hemos planeado para este año, decidimos hacer la espera más divertida y pasar un finde en Tarragona. Me encantan esos planes que no exigen mucha preparación. Se trata de tan solo coger un tren y una hora después aparecer en un entorno diferente.
Para mí Tarragona es como mini Roma del Mediterráneo. En la época romana, Tarragona se llamaba Tarraco y fue uno de los sitios más importantes de la península ibérica. Hoy en día es una ciudad donde el espiritú cosmopolita y la paz de pueblos pequeños viven en la harmonía. La oferta turísitica de Tarragona es muy amplia: destacan sus monumentos y ruinas de la época romana, el laberinto de los callejones coloridos del casco antiguo y una posición espectacular sobre el mar.
Hoy os quería esnseñar mi parte favorita de la cuidad, un paseo amplio al lado del mar conocido como el Balcón del Mediterráneo. Por una parte se ve el puerto de Tarragona y por otra las rocas que rodean la playa del Miracle. En el medio se encuentra la joya de la ciudad, el anfitatro romano situado entre las palmeras y el horizonte azul. Una leyenda urbana dice que tocar la baranda del hierro trae suerte. ¿Quién sabe? ;)
...Continuará...
SRP
Dok nestrpljivo čekamo da počnu avanture koje imamo planirane za ovu godinu, hteli smo da čekanje učinimo zanimljivijim tako što smo proveli vikend u Taragoni, gradu na sat vremena udaljenosti od Barselone. Iako sam bila u Taragoni ranije, ova španska lepotica ne prestaje da me očarava.
Taragona je za mene kao mali Rim smešten uz Mediteran. U pitanju je jedan od najvažnijih starorimskih gradova na Iberijskom poluostrvu (Tarraco), a danas je jedan od glavnih gradova katalonskog dela Španije u kojem se prepliću kosmolitski duh i mir tipičan za neko manje mesto. Taragona pruža toliko toga na relativno maloj teritoriji: ostatke nekadašnjeg rimskog grada, šarene, uzane uličice starog dela grada i savršenu poziciju iznad mora koja će očarati i najizbirljivijeg putnika.
Danas ću vam pokazati moj omiljeni deo Taragone, veliko šetalište iznad mora poznato kao Balkon Mediterana. Pogled počinje od luke, a završava se na stenama koje ograđuju plažu po imenu Miracle (Čudo). U sredini se nalazi starorimski amfietatar, idealno ušuškan izemđu palmi i ostalog mediteranskog rastinja i širokog plavog horizonta. Urbana legenda kaže da ako dotaknete gvozdenu ogradu koja okružuju ovaj vidikovac, imaćete sreće. Vredi pokušati, zar ne? ;)
...Kraj prvog dela...
I wore:
Parka: non branded
Sweater: Sfera
Leggings: Esmara
Bag: JustFab
Boots: Primark
Sunglasses: Dolce & Gabbana
Necklace: Lutkitza
Ja sam očarala ovim mjestom, pogotovo tim amfiteatrom...spoj povijesti, mora i obale, pa tko bi tome odolio? Stvarno mi Tarragona izgleda kao prekrasno mjesto, vidici su predivni i rekla bi da je zaslužila taj laskavi naziv...balkon Mediterana.
ReplyDeleteTi predivno izgledaš! Ta žuta parka jaknica mi se strašno sviđa- ma cijela kombinacija je divna. Mislim da se slažemo po pitanju žute boje:). Jako su mi slatke i vaše zajedničke fotografije.
Pozdrav
i čini mi se da je tamo proljeće već u zraku...
ReplyDeleteDa, baš nekako ima sve što treba. Ne zna se da li su čarobniji vidici, sva ta rimska zdanja ili grad sa svim svojim detaljima i nekom bezbrižnom atmosferom :) Ceo taj ambijent priziva proleće, a i leto, mada je ipak bilo hladnjikavo tih dana. Hvala ti. Nema toga što nismo rekle o žutoj boji. Razumemo se i ovog puta :)
DeleteVeliki pozdrav i od mene! <3
Rimska zdanja me uvijek posebno privlače, u svakoj zemlji. Stvarno su bili izvaredna graditeljska civilizacija. E da...o žutoj smo sve rekle:)
DeleteApsolutno se slažem :)
Delete:)
DeleteYa veo porque es tu sitio favorito. Unas fotos preciosas
ReplyDeleteBesos guapa
Sí, es una maravilla :) Gracias, guapa!
DeleteWspaniale. Żółty idealny na wiosnę :)

DeleteHaha, hvala ti! ;)

Wonderful photos of beautiful place!!! You look so radiant in this outfit, I love your sweater :-)
ReplyDeleteJako šarmantno mjesto, djeluje mi kao savršena vikend oaza za kratki bijeg od radnog tjedna i velikog grada :) Preslatko ti stoji ova žuta parka, oduševila sam se čim sam je vidjela! I veselim se pomalo otkrivati sve vaše nove avanture koje stižu u narednim mjesecima! <3 <3
ReplyDeleteBaš to :) Iako je grad relativno veliki, ipak dominira ta neka opuštena i smirujuća atmosfera. Idealno za kratak beg i punjenje baterija :) Hvala ti! Nekako sam znala da će ti se svideti parka. Znaš mene i žutu :D Drago mi je! Prva avantura kreće uskoro ;) <3 <3
DeleteThese photos are beautiful i hope to visit Spain one day wow so beautiful

DeleteMe encantan esos viajes en los que no se planifica nada jeje como tu bien dices coger el tren y en una hora estas en otro entorno jeje. Las fotos son muy chulas estuve hace un año y hay rincones que me gustaron mucho aunque me gusta más Gerona jeje ;), te lo recomiendo a tan solo 30 minutos de Barcelona. El look es muy apropiado para esta época del año y la chaqueta tiene un color muy favorecedor me estoy animando últimamente con este color ;). Por cierto estoy empezando con Instagram si te animas es quevidamasfacil ya me dices también para seguirte. Un besito guapa.
ReplyDeleteJeje, nos entendemos muy bien :) Me alegra que te gustaran las fotos! :) Gracias por la recomendación! He estado en Gerona varias veces y cada vez que la visito me gusta más incluso, pero la verdad es que no podría elegir entre Gerona y Tarragona :D Sí, el amarilloe está en todas partes estos días y siempre ha sido uno de mis colores preferidos :) Genial! A mí me encanta IG! Ahora mismo te busco! :) <3
DeleteWow, wow, wow ! In my opinion these photos might be easily appeared in any travelling magazine, dear, you just enchanted me by these terrific views and vivid colors of flowers and sea, you filled me with charm of this beautiful Spanish city. What's more, I have no doubts why this part of Tarragona is just favourite one, it's breathtaking :)
ReplyDeletePS: Sorry for my absense on your blog, Tijana!
Have a lovely evening dear,

ReplyDeleteStvarno nisam praznovjerna, ali ne bi bilo loše malo se protrljati o tu ogradicu1 :P Just in case! :) Joj, jaknica mi je divna... znaš da ja volim žutu, a ti mi je genijalno nosiš i uvijek izgledaš predivno u njoj! Fotkice su kao i uvijek čarolija! <3
ReplyDeleteE pa da, ne može da škodi u svakom slučaju :p Hvala ti, mila moja. Znaš i ti mene i žutu boju :) Ceo ambijent je bio čaroban pa nije bilo teško uhvatiti čaroliju i na slikama :)
DeletePrelepo mesto! Jako mi se dopada arhitektonski stil i duh istorije koji se oseća na svakom ćošku. Iznova se zaljubljujem u Španiju gledajući tvoje fotografije draga moja. Ah, što da ne protrljati ogradicu obavezno hehehe.
ReplyDeleteŽuta boja je definitivno tvoja boja tako da si mi tip top.
Ljubim te i odoh da se bacim na čitanje fun facts :-)
Uvek mi je drago da to čujem :) Španija je stvarno posebno lepa zemlja i jesam pristrasna, ali mislim i da govorim objektivno :) Da, žuta i ja se volimo odavno :D Hvala ti na čitanju! <3
