I took about 700 pictures while in Barcelona, it's hard to know where to begin. This is Placa Catalunya, one of the main parks in Barcelona. The main street in Barcelona, La Rambla, starts here, and ends at the water. South of this park, the streets are a centuries old jumble; north of this point, the city was laid out gridlike. Our hostel was about 500m west of this park, a great location.
