Sagrada Família & the Secrets of the Old Town
Overview
After that, we’ll hop on a short metro ride and dive into the winding streets of the Old Town, where medieval charm and local legends live side by side.
We’ll explore Gothic courtyards, hidden corners like the quiet Plaça Sant Felip Neri, pass by the mysterious Bishop’s Bridge, and find Roman ruins hidden in plain sight.
