Gothic Quarter<\/strong>
At the middle of the Gothic Quarter on the Monte Tabor is that the Catedral de la Santa Cruz y Santa Eulalia (Cathedral of the Holy Cross and Saint Eulalia).

During the day, many locals are found here doing their everyday shopping at the Mercat de la Boqueria and in the dark , groups of friends and families take their evening paseo (stroll) on La Rambla to enjoy the fresh air and lively ambience. On some days, onlookers could be treated to measure music, a mime show, or other impromptu street performances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
