One of the areas of Barcelona I like the most is its old city. I enjoy a lot walking through its narrow and charming streets among fantastic gothic churches and palaces. Its squares are quiet places perfect from a break, especially Plaça del Rei and Sant Felip Neri Square.
Apart from the old city of Barcelona, I also would like to include some pictures of the Castle of Montjuïc and the Monastery of Pedralbes, two places I like a lot too.
