The Roman Theatre of Mérida, located in Spain, was built around 16-15 BCE and is a popular cultural icon. It's part of a larger archaeological site and has undergone renovations over the years. With a seating capacity of 6,000, it features a grandstand, orchestra, stage, and peristyle garden area. The front stage was rebuilt in the 1960s, and today, it hosts the Festival de Mérida, the oldest classical theatre festival in Spain. It's a must-visit spot for history buffs and theatre enthusiasts alike!
