Ciutat Vella<\/strong><\/a> is the name of one of the many districts in Barcelona and the original part of the city. It encompasses the neighborhoods of El Raval, La Barceloneta<\/strong><\/a>, El G\u00f3tic<\/strong><\/span>, and Sant Pere<\/strong><\/span>.<\/p>\n

It is dominated by Las Ramblas (the main high street), which leads up to Pla\u00e7a Catalunya, one of the most popular meeting points in the whole of Catalonia.<\/p>\n

It is an area steeped in history<\/strong>, from the early origins of the city in the\u00a0Roman\u00a0era\u00a0to current times.<\/p>\n

Many famous stories<\/strong> have come out of Ciutat Vella<\/strong><\/a> over the years; there are many well-known books that are set in these romantic streets. It is the perfect place for a tale, with the rich history of the Gothic quarter, the shady characters of El Raval<\/strong><\/a>, the bustle of Las Ramblas, and the varied architecture throughout.<\/p>\n

One can’t help but feel part of the stories when walking through this district; it’s so easy to get lost in a tangle of mystery and enchantment! You’ll find yourself intrigued and wanting to learn more.<\/p>\n
