    What you will do

    • Ciutat Vella (Old Town)

      Royal Square was designed in 1848, although the original project dates back to a century earlier. Its symmetrical design, with elegant arcades surrounded by four-story buildings with colonnaded galleries, creates a unique space that invites relaxation and enjoyment.

      Pass by, no stop

    • Gran Teatre del Liceu, one of the most important and emblematic opera houses in Europe.

      Located in the heart of La Rambla, this majestic building has been a cultural landmark of Barcelona since its inauguration in 1847.

      Pass by, no stop

    • There are about 40 markets in Barcelona, but without a doubt, La Boqueria is the most famous market in the city, with a history that dates back to the 13th century, when it was an open-air market.

      Pass by, no stop

    • This bustling boulevard connects Plaça de Catalunya with the Columbus Monument, stretches for just over a kilometer and yet offers hours of pleasant strolling among its stores, gift stores, restaurants and the incessant flow of people who flock to it every day.

      Pass by, no stop

    • This narrow and picturesque alley, barely three meters wide, is very popular in Barcelona for two reasons: the chocolate shops and the art galleries.

      Pass by, no stop

    • This charming space, known as Pine square, owes its name to the majestic pine tree that traditionally stands in the center of the square.

      Pass by, no stop

    • We are in the Jewish Quarter of Barcelona, also known as El Call. It was the center of Jewish life in Barcelona during the Middle Ages, when the city was an important commercial and cultural center of the Mediterranean.

      Pass by, no stop

    • As you enter this small square, you will feel how the hustle and bustle of the city is left behind. Surrounded by historic buildings and presided over by the baroque church of Sant Felip Neri, this square is a place of great beauty, but also of deep memory.

      Pass by, no stop

    • After climbing the small slope you will reach the large door of a building. If the door is open, enter until you reach the remains of the Roman Columns of Barcelona, one of the most impressive vestiges of Roman Barcelona, which transport us directly to the time of Barcino.

      Pass by, no stop

    • This square receives this title due to its close relationship with the Royal House of the Crown of Aragon. This building in front of you was the Royal Palace, residence of the Counts of Barcelona and later of the kings of the Crown of Aragon.

      Pass by, no stop

    • You are located in front of the oldest entrance to the cathedral, known as St. Ivo’s Gate. This historic door is one of the few vestiges of the medieval architecture of the original cathedral, which began in the 13th century.

      Pass by, no stop

    • To your left, stands the imposing Barcelona City Hall, a Renaissance-style building, although with Gothic and Baroque details. It is the center of the city’s municipal administration. Its facade, with an elegant combination of columns and windows, reflects the importance of Barcelona over the centuries.

      Pass by, no stop

    • Look in front of you, the imposing Cathedral of Barcelona, also known as the Cathedral of Saint Cross and Saint Eulalia. It is one of the main symbols of the city and a jewel of Catalan Gothic architecture.

      Pass by, no stop

    • Here, among narrow alleys and hidden squares, lies the living history of over 2,000 years. We’ll walk over the remains of the ancient Roman city of Barcino, discover medieval walls, Gothic cathedrals, and secrets that have survived through the centuries.
