Tour description

Contact as an aperitif, to learn more about this wonderful Mediterranean city.
We will begin the tour of the two Barcelonas that are still recognizable and that underlie this wonderful city. We will start from the Rambla , where we will frame the physical space of the two cities, the Roman and the medieval , to show, between anecdotes and legends, one of the most important Roman necropolises in Europe.
We will be able to see the cathedral and some buildings close to the Roman wall as well as part of that Gothic city , which holds some surprises.
We will visit the Roman temple of Augustus , practically hidden in the city, the Plaza Sant Jaume , center of power in the course of these 2000 years of history, we will also try to condense and make understandable, 800 years of architecture and history in the Plaza del Rei , We will also talk about the city's Jewish past , ending with the thousand-year-old Iglesia del Pi and its surroundings, such as the Fivaller Palace.
