the Old Town.
The Old Town spreads north-west from the harbor and, at its
heart, is the Gothic Quarter or Barrio G'o. El Arco de
Triunfo can be found there, plus the impressive Cathedral of
Ciudad Condal.
Adjacent to the Gothic Quarter is the Barrio de la Ribera,
also of medieval origin, where several historic buildings
have been turned into museums, such as the Palau Aguilar
which is, nowadays, the Picasso Museum.
The renowned Las Ramblas of Barcelona is a series of lively
streets that combine to make a broad avenue leading to the
harbor and Mediterranean Sea. What a superb atmosphere
they possess!
To the south-west lies the fortress-topped hill of Montjuic,
where the Barcelona Olympic Stadium and some fine museums
are located.
At the southern end of the Ramblas lies Barcelona Harbor and
Port Vell. This area now combines high-class restaurants
with trendy clubs and bars.
To be found in the central area of Barcelona (the Eixample)
are the fantasy works of Gaud'uch as Park G'Palau G'br>and Casa Mil'a Pedrera.
However, Gaud's best remembered for the part he played in
the construction of the Cathedral of Barcelona - La Sagrada
Familia.
So ... boomerang on over to Barcelona and get to know Gaud'br>
