"Get lost (on purpose). One of the joys of the Gothic Quarter is letting yourself wander aimlessly, discovering hidden courtyards, ancient walls, and secret nooks.
Visit the Barcelona Cathedral. With its stunning Gothic architecture and serene cloister, is a must-visit.
Plaça Reial: This iconic square is a great place to rest, have a drink, or simply people-watch. It's also home to some of Gaudí's early works in the form of lampposts."

Some highlights of the Gothic Quarter include the striking Plaça Reial, fringed by cafes and palm trees; Plaça Sant Jaume, home to the grand Palau de la Generalitat; and the impressive La Catedral. "
