Reviewed By L7613PTjohnh - Quillan, France
Walking up from the Hotel Emporda is a treat in itself. There is a 3.5km footpath all around the perimiter of the fort. Well worth the walk with marvellous view. Tak water, the walk lasts around 60 to 90 minutes depending on how often you stop. DIRECTIONS - go to the Hotel Emporda - take the road opposite and follow to the top. At the top there is a T junction - turn left - follow the road then dirt track up the hill. You come out at the car park / main entrance. Lovely healthy walk

Reviewed By MesaGrandJunction - Grand Junction, United States
What a beautiful and fascinating location - right on the sea! There are 2 cities - the Greek city closest to the water and the Roman city above it. The mosaics in the Roman city are amazing, and the museum has some very well-preserved mosaics and sculptures. The audio guide, which is included in the admission price, is available in many languages and really helps you picture life in Empuries.
