Barri Gotic
The Barrio Gótico (Gothic Quarter) is one of the most historic and best preserved neighbourhoods in all of Spain. The site of an original Roman town, the narrow alleyways and hidden squares which you see now principally date from medieval times. Full of history and charm it is normally buzzing with life.
The heart of the Barrio Gótico is Plaza Sant Jaume, home to the main political institutions: the 16th-century town hall and the Generalitat, the government of Catalonia. A large cobbled square, it is still used as the focal point for many of Barcelona’s civic celebrations, and the city’s sports teams come here to present newly won trophies to their adoring fans. The square is a good starting point for exploring the elaborate labyrinth of criss-crossing alleys which make up the area. Leading off from one side, a narrow cobbled street takes you to Plaza Sant Felip Neri, a charming medieval square, while in another direction, you’ll come across Plaza de Pi, filled with cafes and craft stalls and flanked by a variety of beautifully preserved buildings. Here is a good place to take in the scenery: the street musicians, artists, quaint bars and café terraces.
