Continuing, pass Barcelona Cathedral (Cathedral of the Holy Cross and Saint Eulalia) and the old Roman city walls, and then wind your way to the heart of the Gothic Quarter to Plaça Reial, a bustling night time square near La Rambla, where the highlight of your evening awaits, a flamenco performance inside one of the oldest flamenco bars in Barcelona! Enjoy a 45-minute authentic flamenco show featuring some of the genre's newest rising stars dancing to traditional Spanish music.
