10 Points of Interest & Landmarks in Barrio Gòtico (Barri Gòtic) That You Shouldn't Miss

August 6, 2021 Velvet Mowry

Barcelona feels a bit surreal – appropriate, since Salvador Dali spent time here and Spanish Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí designed several of the city’s buildings. Stepping into Gaudí’s Church of the Sacred Family is a bit like falling through the looking glass - a journey that you can continue with a visit to Park Güell. Sip sangria at a sidewalk café in Las Ramblas while watching flamboyant street performers, then create your own moveable feast by floating from tapas bar to tapas bar.

Ciutat Vella

This fascinating area is steeped in history, with city hall located in the same spot where kings once reigned. You'll find narrow streets and squares here, with Gothic mansions, museums, historic churches, bars and restaurants. The Placa del Rei is reputedly the place where King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella welcomed Columbus after his voyage to America.

We walked this area almost everyday and there's always a shop or place that we only just noticed while walking past. Includes Basilica de Santa Maria del Pi and the Cathedral of Barcelona

El Beso De Joan Fontcuberta

Don't go all the way to Barcelona and not find "The Kiss" mural. It is really cool! As you get very close to it, you see that the mural is comprised of thousands of small pictures of couples. If you are with your significant other, it is impossible not to sneak a long (real) kiss while gazing at this excellent art. So where is it? Not far from the center, near the big traditional Cathedral. No more hints, you just need to explore that (very safe/nice) area and you will find it. The hunt is fun, and the payoff is worth it!
