Cathedral of Barcelona
Pla de la Seu, s/n, Ciutat Vella, 08002 Barcelona, Spain
Cathedral of Barcelona
Pla de la Seu, s/n, Ciutat Vella, 08002 Barcelona, Spain
Construction began here on 1 May 1298, and the Gothic structure that rose over the following century and a half still defines the oldest corner of the city.
The cloister, finished in 1448, is worth a slow look — quieter than the nave and oddly intimate for a building this scale.

Plaça de Catalunya
Plaça de Catalunya, Eixample, 08002 Barcelona, Spain
Plaça de Catalunya
Plaça de Catalunya, Eixample, 08002 Barcelona, Spain
Inaugurated in 1927, Plaça de Catalunya spans five hectares at the exact point where Barcelona's old city meets the modern grid of the Eixample — making it the city's natural starting reference, not just a square to cross.
The scale surprises first-timers. Resist the urge to photograph immediately; walk far enough in to feel the full geometry, then find one detail — a fountain, a statue — that.
Tip from Miranda W.
Skip the supermarket run for birdseed — feeding the pigeons in Plaça de Catalunya is actually banned, and you could be fined on the spot. The city has been cracking down on it for years to keep the square clean and the bird population in check, so it's best to simply enjoy the space rather than risk an awkward encounter with a local official.
Getting There
From Cathedral of Barcelona, go by walking, about 11 min, (0.8 km)
