Walks in Barcelona
Barcelone, du Born à la Barceloneta : sur les pas du jeune Picasso jusqu'à la mer
De la taverne des Quatre Gats au musée Picasso, de l'école de la Llotja aux cubes rouillés de la plage : la Barcelone où un adolescent de Málaga est devenu peintre, et le quartier de pêcheurs né d'une forteresse
La Rambla y el Raval de Barcelona: conventos perdidos, ópera en llamas y el gato de Botero
De la fuente de Canaletes a las atarazanas medievales: el antiguo arroyo que se convirtió en el paseo más famoso de Barcelona y el barrio que creció a su sombra, entre hospitales góticos, mercados y museos blancos
Montjuïc, la montaña escaparate de Barcelona: de la Exposición de 1929 a los Juegos de 1992
De las torres venecianas de Plaça d'Espanya al castillo que vigila el puerto: fuentes mágicas, un pabellón que cambió la arquitectura, un pueblo de mentira, un estadio que esperó medio siglo y la memoria más dura de Barcelona
Gràcia, el pueblo dentro de Barcelona: plazas, la Casa Vicens y la Plaça del Diamant
De la Casa Fuster a la torre del reloj: la primera casa de Gaudí, el convento que bautizó el barrio, la plaza de Colometa y una villa rebelde que nunca quiso ser solo un barrio de Barcelona
Picasso en Barcelona: el Born, la Ribera y Santa Maria del Mar
De la Llotja donde estudió con trece años a Els Quatre Gats y el Museu Picasso: el joven pintor, el Palau de la Música, el mercado de colores y la catedral del mar de Barcelona
Barcelona bajo tus pies: el Barrio Gótico, el Call y dos mil años de Barcino
De las tumbas romanas al palacio de los reyes: murallas, un templo escondido en un patio, la judería medieval, la plaza de los dos poderes y las cicatrices de 1938 en el corazón antiguo de Barcelona
La Barceloneta y el mar: pescadores, arroces y la bomba de Barcelona
Del muelle de los pescadores al pez dorado de Gehry: el barrio que nació sobre un banco de arena, sus quarts de casa, sus chiringuitos perdidos y la cocina humilde que se convirtió en orgullo de Barcelona
Young Picasso's Barcelona: Els Quatre Gats, La Llotja & the Merchant Streets of La Ribera
Follow a teenage painter from his first café exhibition to the art school where his father taught, through the medieval palaces of Carrer de Montcada and the street that named Les Demoiselles d'Avignon
Gaudí's Endless Temple to Domènech's Garden Hospital: Sagrada Família & Sant Pau, Barcelona
Circle Barcelona's unfinished basilica façade by façade, from Gaudí's wavy-roofed school to his tomb, then walk the avenue that links two geniuses to the Hospital de Sant Pau, a city of healing pavilions
The Block of Discord: Barcelona's Passeig de Gràcia and the Modernista Rivalry
From Plaça de Catalunya to the House of Spikes: Cerdà's grid, Gaudí's Casa Batlló and La Pedrera, Domènech and Puig i Cadafalch, and the Barcelona avenue where architects fought in stone
Montjuïc, the Hill of Big Dreams: Barcelona's 1929 Expo, Olympic Ring & Castle
From a bullring turned shopping mall to the fortress at the top: a climb up Barcelona's own mountain through the 1929 International Exposition, the Magic Fountain, Mies van der Rohe, Romanesque treasures, two Olympics that happened and one that never did
Gràcia, the Village Inside Barcelona: Squares, Rebels and Gaudí's First House
A walk through Barcelona's most independent neighbourhood: an iron market, the bell that rang against the army, the square of Rodoreda's Colometa, a vicereine's name, the plan that lost to Cerdà and Gaudí's Casa Vicens

How long do you want to walk?
Are the courtyards actually open?
Some are, some are not, and it changes. Many Barri Gòtic courtyards are private, open only during a festival, or visible through a gate rather than enterable. The stories say what you are looking at either way, because a closed gate with an explanation is still worth the detour. Where opening hours are known they come from Google Maps and are shown on the stop.
What languages are these walks in?
English and Russian, two walks each. They were written separately rather than translated, so the Russian pair and the English pair pick different stops in the same quarter. Neither set is in Catalan or Spanish yet. Place names, addresses and opening hours are local in every language, because they come from Google Maps rather than from the story.
How long are the walks?
Short — most are under three kilometres and take between one and three hours including listening time. The Gothic Quarter is dense enough that a walk covering a single square kilometre can hold a dozen stops. That makes these good walks for a morning before the heat, or for filling the gap between two timed tickets.
How much does it cost?
Free to listen to everything already written, including the first story of every walk and the full text of every story on the site. A payment writes the unwritten stories of one walk, from £4.99, and they become free for everyone afterwards. Prices are shown in your own currency at checkout and any local tax is handled by Stripe.
