The Gothic quarter is one of the oldest and most interesting parts of Barcelona. There are countless ancient buildings to be found, which date back all the way to Roman times. Every year tourists flock to Barrio Gótico and it is still one of the most popular residential areas. The small narrow winding streets as well as the many tapas bars and cafes add a unique charm to this area of the city, which guarantee a wonderful experience.

The roman gate on Plaça Nova is especially worth mentioning. Here you will also come across the Palacio de la Generalitat as well as the Palacio del Ayuntamiento (Town Hall). Other interesting sites to see include Plaça del Rei, Plaça Reial, the Gothic Cathedral as well as the medieval palaces Casa dels Canonges, Pia Almoina and Ardiaca.

When on your Language Trip in Barcelona to learn Spanish be sure to enjoy an afternoon strolling around the Barrio Gótico to get a taste of times gone by.
