Several iconic squares in the area each have their own unique features. Plaça de Sant Jaume is the political center of Barcelona, with the City Hall (Casa de la Ciutat / Ayuntamiento) and the Palau de la Generalitat de Catalunya standing on either side.

Hidden in a courtyard behind the cathedral, the Temple of Augustus ruins, with several Roman stone columns dating back over 2,000 years, are one of the important ancient Roman stone remains in Barcelona.Spain · Barcelona

Today, it remains one of the city's representative iron structures, and its transparent glass facade makes the entire hall bright and airy, attracting numerous tourists and local residents. Its predecessor was an open-air fish market on the square, which was later converted into a covered market. After being renovated and reopened in 2009, it transformed from a traditional grocery market into a gourmet market themed around Spanish tapas. Since then, Michelin-starred chefs have set up stalls here, serving traditional-style paella. More than 30 stalls are arranged along the atrium, offering everything from seafood shipped directly from the Galician coast and freshly sliced Iberian ham to cheeses, olives, and desserts from all over Spain, bringing almost all the country's signature flavors under one roof.Spain · Madrid

Plaza Mayor
Plaza Mayor is located in the heart of Madrid's old town. It was established in the early 17th century during the reign of King Philip III and has served as the city's public stage for markets, bullfights, and various celebrations for centuries. It has been destroyed by fire and rebuilt several times, and its current layout largely dates back to the late 18th century, designed by the architect Villanueva. The square is a regular rectangle, enclosed on all four sides by old buildings with uniform arcaded facades. Nine external arches connect it to the surrounding streets, and over 200 balconies open onto the square in tiers. Being there feels like stepping into an open-air hall enclosed on all sides. Today, under the arcades, outdoor cafes and souvenir shops are lined up one after another, and portrait artists and street performers set up their stalls here all year round. The bronze equestrian statue of Philip III in the center of the square was created by Italian sculptors Giambologna and Pietro Tacca, and flocks of pigeons often fly around the statue. At one end, the Casa de la Panadería is flanked by two towers, and its outer walls are covered with colorful murals depicting mythological themes, making it an exceptionally photogenic backdrop in the square.Spain · Madrid

The Zaragoza Bridge is a very important traffic road connecting the two areas. The University of Zaragoza is also here. There are very good views along the way. It is free to visit, including some ranches in the small towns here, which are very wide.

The Gothic Quarter in Barcelona has a history of thousands of years. If you like history, it is worth visiting. It covers a large area and takes about a day to walk around the city. I like this feeling very much. It feels very romantic.

This is my favorite science museum. The exterior is stunning, and the interior exhibits and interactions are very good. It was the first time I learned that Leonardo da Vinci was a genius who could do everything, including architecture, painting, sculpture, anatomy, and bridge building. It was the first time I learned about the moon and Mars. It was the first time I learned about genes. There were too many interactions. The children were especially hi

Madrid’s Retiro Park occupies a very large area and is well worth a visit, but when people enter the park, they dress up as Disney dolls, such as Cardchao and Super Sonic Mouse, which are out of place!

There are many cities with Spanish squares, but the Spanish square in Seville is the real Spanish square. The Spanish squares in other cities pale in comparison with the Spanish square in Seville. In today's Seville, you can still see many relics left by the Moors. Seville has a completely different Moorish architectural style from Catalonia, which is why Seville is so beautiful. Seville is not a big city, and you can arrange three days and two nights here. The transportation, food and accommodation prices are not high in European countries, especially the food is very cost-effective. ^ Spanish Square It is recommended that you come to the Spanish Square before sunset because the square shines with golden light under the sunset, and everything is just right. This square designed and built for the Ibero-American Exhibition in 1929 has a diameter of 200 meters.

Even if you’re not looking for food, walking through is a fun way to overview Madrid’s general culinary scene. The whole market is huge, and you’ll have to walk through a couple loops if you want to get a good idea of all the options (which I recommend doing anyways).

蒙锥克山公园，位于巴塞罗那，自二十世纪以来逐步建设成为集文化、体育与自然景观于一体的城市公园。 公园因1929年万国博览会和1992年巴塞罗那奥运会的举办而兴建了国家宫、奥林匹克体育场等重要设施，现已成为市民日常休闲与游客观光的免费公园。

波盖利亚市场是巴塞罗那的一个著名景点，没有必要特意来，路过正好进去逛了逛。人太多了，基本以游客为主。就是一个大的市场，但是非常干净，没有味道，有卖火腿的，蔬菜，水果和海鲜的，还有现场加工，逛累了可以喝杯小酒吃点吃的。总之还不错，别有一番风味。

One of the best places to relax in Madrid with a good beer and a squid sandwich, very close to Puerta del Sol and the Madrid of the Austrians.
