Girona

The city of Girona is beautifully located just one hour north of Barcelona and less that one hour drive to France, midway between the sea and the mountains. The Old Town is one of the most evocative historical centres in Catalonia, with certain elements that are unique in Europe: the Carolingian medieval wall, an exceptionally well preserved Jewish quarter, and the grandeur of the Cathedral’s Gothic nave, the widest in the world. Girona also has six museums which possess a patrimonial collection of great interest. Its old center is pedestrian to allow the visitor to enjoy the beauty of its narrow streets, medieval and renaissance buildings, its outdoor cafeterias and restaurants, attractive and interesting shops.
