An early morning walk around the labyrinth of Barri Gótic. Never ending winding streets that can get you lost! Full of character and personality, an indulgence for the senses; a mix of smells, music, people, foods and colours.

I don't know when it was designed but the intricate work is almost as if it has been inspired by Art Nouveau. A movement during the late 19th and early 20th centuries where it seeked to escape the eclectic styles that had previously been popular. Artists such as Gustav Klimt drew inspiration from both organics and geometric forms, evolving elegant designs that united flowing, natural forms with angular compositions.

I don't think I've seen Plaza Reial, one of the most popular meeting point or a place just to mingle as clean and empty as this. Normally it's packed with people who just finished their meal, coming out from the bars situated inside this enclosed plaza or people just passing through.
