The Cidade Romana de Ammaia is not far from Morvão, so if you're in the area, you might want to visit. Personally, I was disappointed. The small museum is quite interesting, but a lot of the items on display are reproductions. The weather was not good, with heavy rain, which is not the best for walking around an archaeological site where all of the pathways were not paved, which meant walking around guaranteed wet feet. There is not a lot to see in reality. Port Sul, South Gate, is the only section with any remains above ground.

We went there. You have to pay to get in, not much though. But there is really not much to see. There are many other Roman sites that are much more interesting. Not worth the effort.

Worths a 1-2 hour visit to see the remains of an old Roman city and the small entrance fee contributes to the discovery of much more stuffs in the area

The archeological site at Ammaia is astounding. It is in its infancy, of course but you must understand that this is a hidden city of 5 to 6 thousand people almost 2,000 years ago. The staff were helpful and interested in what they are doing. The video is shown in your language (ours was English) and is VERY informative.

3 euro admission. Museum artefacts were all in Portugese, but film was in English. Site a bit underwhelming, but they have active digging going on

A very interesting excavation. This Roman site is still being uncovered and is very much a work in progress. However it was possible to get a good idea of the size of the original settlement.It would be helpful if more of the story boards/ explanations had English translations so that we could have learnt more.

It was a kind of disappointment. The museum was closed but we visited the ruins. Although the reconstructions are good, the ruins are not always very well preserved. But I enjoyed seeing it anyway.

Good site, for what could be major touristic attraction. A large Roman site, but with little work done. A small onsite museum is worth the visit. We were lucky to have one of the members of the archeological field team guide us.

We saw some information about the site when visiting Marvao, and decided to visit. Although we arrived late we had enough time to visit the small, but interesting museum.The curator was very helpful and suggested that we watch the introductory video ( in English ), first and then look around the museum before it closed, as we would still be able to access the remains of the town after closing time. Although none of the artefacts had labels in English, we were familiar enough with Roman artefacts to be able to identify most things. The site itself was quite extensive, with a partly reconstructed gate and a temple podium amongst the remains. It was somewhat overgrown, not as 'manicured ' as some sites in the UK, but definitely worth a visit
