If you’re here for the city
This is the city center. Barcelona is a vibrant place, with its contagious exuberance constantly spilling out onto small streets and cute Plaças packed with cafes, bars and local designer shops. Take yourself for a wander down Las Rambla, an approximately 1km road where you can explore palaces, admire street performers and avoid flower sellers. There’s an El Corte Inglés department store, too.
This is also where you can find La Boqueria, a fresh-food market with over 300 stalls that sell produce, meats, cheeses, fish, seafood, nuts, fresh juices and many other incredibly delicious things to munch on. There’s also a local food school where local chefs and sommeliers share their wisdom.
If you’re here for the beach
Stroll past Plaça Reial, and stop for a beer or coffee (or, as the locals would say, “both”) under the shade of old palm trees. Contemplate the gothic architecture of Barcelona cathedral. It’s 800 years old and covered in gargoyles. Walk by the marina and through the Barceloneta streets onto the nearest beaches for the Mediterranean vibe. Elegant colonial buildings surround you. Shadowy arches. High windows. Fading wooden shutters. Travel back in time as you wander the narrow streets. The buildings lean overhead, almost touching.
If you’re here for the nature
Parc Guell, Parc de Ciutadella and many other locations such as Montjuic or Tibidabo are easily accessible by metro, bus or taxi. There are many places where you can enjoy the beauty of nature, wild colored flowers or fragrant bushes. Just to visit all the attractions of Montjuic could easily take you a week. Here you can find not one but two wondrous botanical gardens, one of them a cactus reservation that’s one of the most Instagrammable natural wonders of Barcelona, The Fundacio Miro, The Poble Espanyol, The Theatre Grec, Palau Sant Jordi or explore some of the former Olympic village attractions.
If you’re here for the shopping
Shop ‘til you drop! Or maybe not that much, but still, find local designers and cute boutique stores plus the big Corte Ingles within walking distance. If you’re looking for something more upscale, take the Green Metro Line (L3) directly to Passeig the Gracia / Rambla de Catalunya
Pro tip: You’ll love the boutiques on Carrer d’Avinyó. At Number 7 you’ll find La Manual Alpargatera. It sells espadrille-inspired shoes. It's whispered they cut their colours from a real rainbow. Grey-purple-green? No problem.
If you’re here for museums
Rest assured, both Ciudat Vella and neighbouring Raval are full of museums, monuments and interesting cultural venues like Museo de la Marina, MACBA (for Contemporary Art) or the Catalan Cultural Center, plus some fun and interesting stuff for kids if you need to entertain them (Big Fun Museum and Museum of Illusions or the Wax Museum)

Welcome to Barri Gòtic.
It’s one of Barcelona’s oldest neighbourhoods. So there’s plenty for you to explore. The architecture is gloomy neo-gothic. Narrow streets twist and turn. Each a path leading you back to the past.
Very well connected with transportation including the Adif train station. Enjoy the high ceiling with quintessential Catalan ceiling and exterior balcony overlooking the charming typical streets of “El Barrie Gotico”. Steps away from Harbor of Port Vell, Las Ramblas, Piccaso Museum, La Catedral de Santa Eulalia, and Mall of Spain that opens 365 days a year. 10-minute walk to Barceloneta, Arco de Triunfo, Barcelona Zoo, Plaza Catalonia, and the historic attractions and fine dining and shopping.
The apartment is located in the city center in the Barcelona old town called Barrio Gothico. It is the oldest neighborhood in Barcelona and is located within walking distance to most touristic attractions. A few minutes walking from the port, las Ramblas and the main beach in Barcelona.
There are several trendy bars and restaurants in the area with a lot of options to go out and enjoy the city
