Wandering around |
Barcelona, Barcelona 08002 +34 93 368 9730 (Tourist Information) |
Barcelona's oldest residential district is these days a cosmopolitan and hip spot that is worth exploring. A magnet for artistes and students, over the last few years, quite a few young designers have moved in and opened up trendy fashion outlets. Barri Gòtic is also the place for antiques, crafts and souvenirs. The Carrer de Banys Nous and the narrow streets around it are full of small, cave-like antique shops that hide all kinds of jewels. There are also some eye-catching stores selling ceramics, pottery and crafts from Latin America and Africa. Markets enthusiasts won't be disappointed either: Plaça Nova houses an antiques market on Thursdays, while Plaça de Sant Josep Oriol fills with stalls selling crafts on Thursdays and Fridays. Don't leave the area without sampling a delicious hot chocolate in one of the atmospheric "Chocolaterías". Review © 2009, Wcities |
