Barcelona. Gothic Quarter

Hide the navigator away from the map and you will feel the atmosphere of the medieval city and its narrow, crooked streets

From the embankment, wide streets and squares, we move towards the Gothic towers.

This beautiful building is an ordinary telegraph.

The roads ran out, there were only small, very narrow streets ...

Buildings of 100-500 years ...

The bright sun hardly penetrates to the base of the houses, so it's cool enough.

It smells of beer and urine

At night I would not come here ..

There are many national and football flags on the balconies

Beauty!
Ninhas, given sudu Numero de telefono!)))

Many dubious cafes

Usually there are many administrative and historical buildings around such open spaces.
For example, the city council of Barcelona.

The building of the 15th century is generously decorated with bas-reliefs and statues.

On the contrary, a completely different from it, a practically modern skyscraper.

Across the street, the Palace of the Government of Catalonia

I liked the color dome.

In the next courtyard towers the Cathedral of Barcelona - the Cathedral of the Holy Cross and St. Eulalia.

You have to go inside.

By the way, this particular cathedral, and not Sagrada Familia, is the residence of the Archbishop of Barcelona and the main cathedral of Barcelona.

In the quarter, this is not the only temple.
Here is another ancient Gothic cathedral - Santa Maria del Pi.
It is the national cultural property of Catalonia.

In the quarter of many sculptures

We leave on the wide boulevard.

The Picasso Museum opened in the middle of the last century.

The exposition of the museum is located in an old palace of the 15th century with interesting courtyards and galleries.
Meet - it's Pablo Diego Jose Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno Maria de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santisima Trinidad Mirtir Patricio Ruiz and Picasso.
The expensive Artist, however ...

The Palace of Catalan Music

The only concert hall in the world with natural light, by the way.
The facade can be seen for a long time))

That's it, Barcelona.
Ancient, real.
To wander for hours here is joy and pleasure.

And when you get lost, remember the navigators and maps.
Yes, and do not forget about comfortable shoes))
