Tarragonès, Administrative division in eastern Catalonia, Spain

Tarragonès extends along the Mediterranean coast, encompassing 22 municipalities with Tarragona city as its capital and administrative center.

The region emerged from the ancient Roman settlement of Tarraco, which served as the capital of Hispania Tarraconensis during the Roman Empire.

The municipalities within Tarragonès maintain Catalan traditions through annual festivals, human tower performances, and Mediterranean gastronomy featuring seafood and local wines.

The comarca connects to Barcelona and Valencia through a network of highways, railways, and the Reus Airport, making it accessible for visitors.

The region combines Roman archaeological sites, Mediterranean beaches, and industrial facilities, including one of Spain's largest petrochemical complexes near Tarragona port.
