this old Roman-style façade looked beautiful; I'm not sure when it actually dates from, but it points to the original Roman settlement which is now underground (in the same area)
Visited Barcelona Sep2-6. Explored the Barri Gotic, Barcelona's 'old town' equivalent, which is built atop the ruins of the old Roman settlement, and houses the city's cathedral. Also wandered around Montjuïc, where the complex for the Olympic Games was built.
