The Gothic Quarter


I went on a tour of the Gothic Quarter in Barcelona with some Study Abroad advisers from all over the US. They were here on a trip and wanted to meet some students. I got free Paella out of it and a pretty awesome tour. The Barri Gotic of course has gothic style buildings and the Cathedral La Seu, but also, remains left from the Roman Colony in Barcelona during Emperor Augustus' rein founded between 10-15 B.C.E.
