Barri Gòtic

"Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter is where you’ll find the charm and essence of the city. The narrow streets with small balconies and cobblestones will take you back in time, as well as satisfy the craving most tourists have about seeing Barcelona as it appears in all the pictures. Las Ramblas is the city’s most popular stretch, so the best time to stroll here is early in the morning before most tourists are awake. Drop by Carrer del Bisbe and take a photo of the iconic bridge bathed in the soft morning light. You’ll get lost a lot in the Gothic Quarter because all of the streets look the same, but don’t panic — just enjoy the walk and remember to look up to see the locals chilling on their balconies." - MATADOR_NETWORK
