The Gothic Quarter, El gotico, is the medieval part of the old walled city of Barcelona and is the oldest part of the city. It is characterised by a labyrinth of narrow streets with atmospheric basement bars, great restaurants and shops. EL Gotico is bordered on the left by Las Ramblas and on the right by Via Laietana. EL gotico Ends at plaza Catalunya at the top and The port of Barcelona at the bottom.
