| The capital city of Barcelona in the beautiful
region of Catalunya has many historical buildings,
palaces, cathedrals, bull rings and even shops have
been converted out of fantastic architectural masterpieces.
Marks and Spencer's have converted one of the oldest
and certainly largest banks into a large store. The
city is particularly famous for the architect Gaudi
who has many buildings scattered around the
city. Then there are modern buildings like the Nou
Camp stadium and shopping centres with all the designer
shops you would expect in this rich city. |

The water front is just as impressive with its mixture
of new and old buildings. Here you will find many bars
and eating places, and at the bottom of the rambles which
leads you back into Barcelona is the famous statue of Columbus.

Coming up the coast to
our particular area there is a dramatic change in
scenery with high mountains lush in pine forests
and lots of small rocky coves and sandy beaches.
 |
|
The beach at Platja d'Aro is the largest in the area with many bars
and restaurants along the promenade. At the end of the bay is the
marina full of luxury boats. Nearby there is a large water park and
for keen golfers there are some beautiful courses just outside the
town. |

| If you do fly over to check out this beautiful region
I am sure you won't be disappointed. Even if you do not
buy a property I am sure you will return for a holiday. |
