Barcelona old town

All people who consider Barcelona to be one of the most exotic destination and nothing else, I will say that there is a lot of history inside of it, which some people consider to be boring. But, its not like that. If you are a little bit educated about the old European history, you will know what role this city has been playing from centuries.
The Barri Gotic is the medieval old town district of Barcelona which has been dating from over 2000 years to when the city was first settled. You are not allowed to driving a car between those street, because they are too narrow which makes them perfect place for walking or riding in a pedicab. Pay attention and look up at the detailed gargoyles and facades of the old buildings. Even influential parts of the Roman wall can be seen in Barri Gotic. The city hall, the seat of the Catalan government, the royal palace, and the of course the main cathedral in Barcelona are all found in the old down. Of course, this was only one part of the old city, which in fact is more popular than La Rambla. In La Rambla tourist can find the famous pedestrian street of Barcelona fully loaded with shops, faces and markets. Don’t forget about the vacation rental in Barcelona, which are close to the central part of the old city. If you are lucky enough, the short term rentals Barcelona flats could even inside this location.
As a conclusion I could say that Barcelona has amazing culture, which could not pass with easy hand. I know that the main idea to be on vacation is to relax, but sometimes its better to be more educational. Or, to mix both of it in one.
