    • THE GOTHIC QUARTER is off the RAMBLAS and is a labyrinth of streets, shops and doorways. An odd thing happens during siesta. All the shops bring in their displays and roll down their metal doors making a labyrinth of faceless corridors. The entire area changes character and I for one, couldnt recognise my way home untill the displays were put out again. It happened way too often LOL.

     Michael, I see that you love architecture as much I do, and Barcelona is a paradise for architecture. Wonderful insights. Excellent introduction and fabulous photographs.

     It looks like I missed out on my trip to Spain. Maybe next time I guess, LOL :-)    		Maria_75 Thu Sep 30, 2004 22:16 UTC
