The area surrounding the apartment :

The Da Vinci apartment is situated right in the heart of the old town in Barcelona, the Barrio Gotic or Gothic Quater. It is situated very close to one of Barcelona's most distingushed - but least visited - Gothic churches, the Santa Maria del Pi. The quiet and attractive Plaça del Pi in front of the church is filled with bars and restaurants with outside seating where a cup of coffee goes down well while watching the quirky street performers who congregate to entertain the visitors most days. The area itself, which surrounds the apartment, is a body of pedestrianised interconnecting narrow cobble stoned streets where you can wander around aimlessly for hours imagining how it was back in medieval times. Other areas of interest within walking distance from the apartment are the famous Las Ramblas, the Liceu opera house, the Barcelona City Hall in Plaça Jaume, which is three minutes' walk from the apartment as well as the remains of the old Roman Walls coupled with many more treats from Barcelona's ancient and medieval past. Las Ramblas is another short four minutes' walk from your door, as is the wonderful Gothic Cathedral and the very trendy El Borne area which is full of fantastic one off boutiques!
