Balcó del Mediterrani, Scenic viewpoint at Rambla Nova, Tarragona, Spain
The Balcó del Mediterrani stands at the end of Rambla Nova, offering panoramic views of the Mediterranean Sea, port, beach, and Roman amphitheater.
The iron railings of the viewpoint were constructed in 1889 by architect Ramon Salas i Ricomà, marking a significant period in Tarragona's urban development.
Local celebrations and festivals take place at this location, where residents gather to maintain social connections while enjoying views of the Mediterranean coastline.
A 300-meter promenade constructed over railway tracks provides secure access to the viewpoint, which sits 40 meters above sea level.
The base of the cliff features a garden with the letter T of Tarraco and the city shield created through a combination of stonework and precisely trimmed plants.
