You pass the Basilica of Santa Maria del Mar. It is one of the best examples of what Gothic architecture is. A whole story of harmony of proportions.

The alley you walk up, wide and harmonious, is called the Passig del Born. Its history dates back to medieval times, when the place hosted tournaments and knighthoods.

This huge metal hall in front of which you arrive houses the Born culture and memory center. The former Point of Sale, known as the Iron and Glass Cathedral, now houses a permanent exhibition on 17th and 18th century Barcelona.

You enter Barcelona's urban park par excellence. Like New York at its Central Park or London its Hyde Park, Barcelona has its Citadel Park.

The highlight of the show in this park is her. The beautiful waterfall fountain, inspired by the Trevi fountain. You have to get back in context.

The Triumph Arch of Barcelona is part of the entire park of the Citadel built for the World’s Fair, to serve as a monumental gateway to the fairgrounds.

Arriving around the corner, you will inevitably be attracted by this magnificent red brick building, with pillars and facades covered with mosaics and exuberant decoration.

Another building that denotes and attracts our attention. Under its medieval castle air, Els Quatre Gats, which you cleverly translated into:“The Four Cats”, was a famous cabaret opened in 1897.

Here we are in the heart of Barcelona. Plaça Catalunya is literally the center of the city where all the major shopping streets converge and where we meet!

You reach the most famous avenue in the city, but also the most crowded: the famous Ramblas. If you saw it from the sky, you would realize that the Rambla is built on the bed of a dry river.

On your right is the entrance to the Palace of Virreina, translate, the Palace of the Viceroy. It was built in 1778, at the request of Manuel Amat, who was the former Viceroy of Peru, that is, the official representative of the crown in the colonies of New Spain in South America.

This beautiful coloured glass metal entrance invites you to enter the wonderful world of the Boqueria Point of Sale. It is one of the largest covered markets in Europe, and a real institution in Barcelona.

If you hadn’t thought or had not had time to visit the Miro Museum, Miro will come to you! You cannot miss this huge mosaic characteristic of the work of the famous Spanish painter.

You arrive in Plaça del Pi, in front of the Basilica of the same name. The present building, austere with its massive facade and its unique rose window, dates from 1319, and is in Gothic style.

We are in the street “del Banys nous”, which ran along the outside of the Roman wall. It takes its name, which you can translate as “New Baths”, from the ancient public baths, founded in 1160 in this place where water was abundant.

The Place Royale is classy, even very classy, with its perfect proportions, porticoes, palm trees and fountain. It is said to have been named Royal precisely because of its beauty, but in reality it should have been called the Spanish Heroes’ Square, after the war of independence waged against the Napoleonic Empire.

It is impossible not to tick as you pass the facade of Palais Güell. Yes, this is Gaudi's work. Less known than the Mila or Batlló houses, this palace is nevertheless the only one that can be visited from top to bottom, so if you ever want to discover the interior it is possible, but of course it pays.

The small square that opens around the corner is the Place de la Veronica. It takes its name from the woman who, according to the Gospels, wiped Jesus’ face during the Way of the Cross, and whose cloth had been marked forever.

You arrive in front of the famous Barcelona wire. What at first seems to be a work of abstract art perhaps for some, without much interest, is actually a tribute to the Castellers.

Let’s go back to when Barcelona was still called Barcino. You are at the crossroads of 2 main Roman roads where the Roman forum and the temple of Augustus were located.

This superb marble suspension bridge on Rue Bisbe is often the image you have in mind in the Gothic Quarter. It blends in perfectly with the décor and yet it was only added in the 20th century.

You arrive at the small square Sant Felip Neri, secret and quiet amid the hustle and bustle of the city. It takes its name from the church that presides over it, a rare baroque building in the city, built in the 18th century as a dependency of the convent of the confederation of the oratory, a society of priests.

A few meters from the cathedral, unknown to the general public, is the Casa de l’Ardiaca, literally the house of the archdeacon. An ecclesiastical class that has now disappeared.

There she is! The Patron Saint of Barcelona. Sainte-Eulalie himself. Dedicated to both the patron saint of the Diocese of Barcelona and the Holy Cross.

I wanted to draw your attention to some of the gargoyles in the cathedral. Bewitching, it is full of sculptures full of mysteries and you could spend hours scrutinizing it and looking for messages.

A hidden medieval gem, the King’s Square propels you to the Middle Ages during the time of the Counts of Barcelona. Facing the royal palace, it served as the castle's barnyard and hosted markets and tournaments.
