The "Ciutat Vella", which means "Old City" in Catalan, is one of the biggest mediavel city areas in Europe. It spans the neighbourhoods of La Raval, Barri Gotic, La Ribera and El Born. Each neighbourhood in the old city of Barcelona has its own special places and atmosphere.
"Barcino" the old Roman name for Barcelona. These letters are on Plaça Nova near Barcelona Cathedral where western gate of the old Roman city was.
 The area of Cuitat Vella, the old medieval city, is easy to see on a satellite photo. Almost all the medieval city walls are gone now except a small stretch by the Drassanas Reial - the Royal shipyards.
 The narrow streets of Barcelona's old city are lined with cafes, restaurants and fashionable boutiques

   Modernist letterbox from 1902 by Catalan architect Doménech i Montaner outside "Casa de l'Ardiaca" - The Archdeacon's House - near Barcelona Cathedral. The letter box was added in 1902, when the building was used by the "Colegio de Abogados" - College of laywers, who asked Domenech i Montaner to redecorate. The turtle is said to symbolise the "speed" of the postal service back then.
 Plaza Neri is one of the smallest and nicest squares in the Barrio Gotico. You can find the tiny Barcelona shoe museum on this plaza and the cafe of the Hotel Neri
