Local guide
About Gothic Quarter
Gothic Quarter is a true tourist hotspot, filled with shops and famous attractions on every corner. During the day, urban explorers fill its narrow, stone-paved streets, admiring the neo-Gothic sights – but it’s the night that sees the Quarter truly come to life. Home to some of the city’s most popular restaurants, bars, and quirky shops that stay open till late, the vibrant area is popular among young travellers and party-goers seeking the best Barcelona has to offer.
Explore the area
Local restaurants, cafes, museums, sites and activities, recommended by our community of hosts and travel experts
Visit the Cathedral of Barcelona
A picture perfect example of Gothic architecture and one of Barcelona's greatest sights. As beautiful on the inside as it is on the outside.
Pay a visit to the Arco de Triunfo
This arch was built as the main access point during the 1888 Barcelona World Fair and has remained a popular tourist attraction ever since.
Go for a boat ride at Parc de la Ciutadela
This is probably the greenest oasis in all of Barcelona. Created as the city's first public park in the mid 19th Century, it's a lovely place to while away an afternoon.
Take some time off at Aire Ancient Baths
In the heart of Barcelona, there's a place where time stands still. This luxurious spa in a converted warehouse offers an unforgettable, almost surreal experience for the mind, body, and soul.
Stop by Casa Rafols
A great restuarant with a fun atmosphere and a little club in the basement.
Pay a visit to Elsa & Fred
Located down a narrow alleyway, you’ll discover a bustling little place with great service, a fun atmosphere and delicious food.
Visit one of the oldest bars in Barcelona at Els 4Gats
Step into the past at Els 4Gats, established in 1897, and a long-time favourite haunt of artists, writers, and intellectuals of all kinds. Picasso was a fan.
Discover the beauty of Santa Maria del Mar
This imposing basilica in the Ribera district was built at the height of Principality of Catalonia's maritime and mercantile preeminence – an outstanding example of Catalan Gothic architecture.
Choose your dinner at La Paradeta
The motto is: Sail away with us! This unique cross between a fish market and a restaurant, and it doesn't get much fresher than that. Come and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere and great service.
Go for vermut and tapas at Bormuth
With a great atmosphere and a great selection of tapas, Bormuth is a great place to go for a drink and snack.
Enjoy Traditional Tapas at El Xampanyet
Cozy bar with a buzzing vibe offering traditional tapas, cava, and wine. Amazing food, friendly staff, and a great variety of dishes to choose from. Highly recommended for a taste of traditional Barcelona.
Experience the Ornate Opulence of Palau de la Música Catalana
Step into this stunning art nouveau concert hall with its beautiful facade, stained-glass dome, and intricate interior. Enjoy concerts, dance performances, and multimedia experiences. Don't miss the breathtaking organ and 2nd-floor views.
