Barrio Gottico is where I live, it is the centre of Barcelona, the sex and drugs and tourist place where everyone goes. Where pickpockets pick pockets in pairs, where you can lose your watch at one end of the street and buy it back at the other end. Where you can experience 2,000 years of history in a day. I love it. You can walk down a street six feet wide and imagine that Christofer Columbus once walked there. Now ladies with red painted toe nails promenade, you can imagine an armada setting sail from Port Vell a discovery is underway. The old city comprises El Ravel, Barrio Gottico and El Borne. A hazy, crazy, dayzie maze of narrow streets and alleyways that go back to the start of time, enjoy it with me.
