El Serrallo: the Fishermen's Quarter and Tarragona's Port Side
The neighborhood born from the sea that still smells of it: El Serrallo's fish market, boats and its own colles castelleres, home to three thousand residents. It then climbs to industrial Tarragona, past the lone factory chimney and la Tabacalera, under which more than two thousand paleo-Christian tombs turned up.
