Free tour Discovering the past on the current modernist route
Tour description
On this tour we will take a look at the modernist route, discover corners of the ancient road that linked Roman Barcelona with its adjacent towns and end at the majestic Cathedral.
We will start at the top of Paseo de Gracia and walk past some emblematic buildings on the modernist route.
We will pass through the well-known Plaza Cataluña and stroll along the shopping street known as Portal del Ángel, stopping at a shop selling artisanal nougat, the typical Christmas dessert eaten at all Spanish tables during Christmas (shop open all year round).
Finally, we will end up in the Plaza de la Catedral where I will explain some interesting facts about it and we will see a small piece of the Roman aqueduct.
It is not a specific tour of the modernist route but it does help you to situate yourself and understand the transformation of the buildings and streets of the past to what we see today.
I accept payments in cash or bizum.
