Catalunya - Costa Brava
Barcelona
BARCELONA is a city that you really should have seen. By train from Calella, and for only 5 euros, you will be in the center of Plaza Catalunya and the most famous street La Ramblas after more than an hour. You can use a city bus to see the city or go for a walk and taste the atmosphere. On foot you can also see a lot such as The Sagrada Familia or La boqueria, a gigantic market hall with vegetables, fruit, meat and fish. There is already an experience in itself. Quite apart from the many bars and restaurants. And ... How wonderful it is to be back after such a day in an oasis of peace in our villa.
Plaza Catalunya, also the start of the Rambla. So much atmosphere, so much to see. To be there is already an experience in itself.

If you like history, you can visit a medieval town such as Besalú. Enter the city of Besalú via the old bridge to relive the daily experience of the medieval inhabitants of Besalú, before wandering through the charming streets and finding your way to Plaça de la Llibertat. Along the way you'll find artisan shops selling ceramics, leather goods and other local crafts in small boutiques with stone walls and all the appeal of the cave of Ali Baba.
Besalú is approximately 100 km. from our villa. Just above Girona. A visit to this place can therefore best be combined with visiting Girona with its medieval old town district with its Little Venice district on the river Onyar.
