Location Description
The Gothic Quarter is one of the oldest and most interesting areas in Barcelona. First of all because of Las Ramblas - the very famous 2-kilometer long boulevard that runs from Plaça de Catalunya, the very heart of Barcelona, to Barcelona´s port, showing what is perhaps the essence of Barcelona. Sights to see on this wonderful boulevard are: Mercado de La Boquería, Academia de Sciencias, gothic-baroque church de Betlem, Palacio de Moya, and the Casa Bruno Cuadros. Furthermore, the Gothic Quarter is known for its many ruins of old fortifications, which still remain from the time the Romans ruled. The area is visited by thousands of tourists every year and is the trendiest place to live. With its winding streets it is easy to get lost, but the many tapas bars and little cafes make the journey most enjoyable. In the streets Carrer de Ferran and Carrer Jaume I as well as in all the narrow streets in the upper part of the Gothic Quarter, you can find all kinds of interesting and trendy shops and you can airily discover the area. The streets situated in the lower part of the quarter are gloomier, but there still are a lot of nice restaurants and bars, which are worth a visit. Interesting places to see in this area include: Plaça del Rei, Plaça Reial and, of course, the Gothic Cathedral.
