Romantic, beautiful streets : day or night. This was my favourite part of Barcelona. Lovely narrow streets, pavement cafes and restaurants, cool little squares. A must!

Visiting the Gothic Quarter was the highlight of our trip to Barcelona- much better than Sagrada Familia. The tight streets and unique shops just begged to be explored / discovered. See it earlier in the day as it gets hot and humid since the wind is blocked by the buildings.
The architecture there are something to admire, they look like something from Harry Potter or any fantasy genre. There are many varieties of shops, restaurants, tourist attractions to choose from.
Gothic Quarter is really good to walk around, the maze of narrow laneways seems endless with many shops, cafe and bars at every turn.
Very close to La Rambla and the cathedral both excellent areas to explore as well.
Take your time walking around all the little laneways to laneways you get to see some amazing and unique buildings and shops.
Once a Roman city with high walls and fortified towers, the Gothic Quarter in Barcelona dates back to over 2,150 years ago, and is one of the most talked about districts in the city. The Gothic Quarter was part of our 3-hour orientation of the city that was facilitated by a local guide. I really enjoyed the architecture, the history of the quarter, and the narrow medieval streets that make being in the Gothic Quarter very special.
We took a free walking tour (you are expected to tip) of the Gothic Quarter and loved it. This area is historic, beautiful and full of wonderful stores, cafes and restaurants
