About Badajoz Tourism


Because of its key location on the far westerly side of Spain and next to the Guadiana River, all of the different cultures throughout Spanish history have passed through Badajoz, leaving something of their influence. The province reached its peak of power and effect during the Roman Empire, when the Romans made the easterly municipality of Merida one of the empire's most important capital cities.

Badajoz Airport (BJZ) is located within the Extremadura region and notable sites include Alcazaba, one of the best preserved walled Arab castles in Spain. The historical quarter of Badajoz is also a pleasant place to stroll around and enjoy the plazas, churches and cafés. The locals have a reputation for being very friendly and helpful to tourists.
