Spain - Cataluna

Pueblo Español

A Karen Brown Recommendation

Also in Montjuich is the Pueblo Español (Spanish town) which is an entire little village constructed for the 1929 exposition, utilizing the varied architectural styles of Spain. Some of the structures are re-creations of actual buildings, and some simply imitate regional styles. The entrance, for example, is a reconstruction of the towers of the city wall of Ávila. It is an impressive achievement and is now essentially a shopping area featuring artesanía (arts and crafts) from the different regions. If you have been to other areas of Spain, you will be struck by the unique juxtaposition of the various architectural styles.
