Cathedral of Barcelona
The Cathedral of Barcelona is an excellent example of 14th century Catalan Gothic architecture. We recommend you to visit parts of the cathedral-like the cloister where thirteen geese live, the crypt where Santa Eulalia is buried, martyred for defending the Christian faith as well as the terrace where you will see the towers.
