[Pl.Reial (PlaçaReial) | A sunny square in the Gothic Quarter adorned with Gaudi lighting] — A quiet square near the Royal Palace is a "social gathering place" with palm trees, a fountain, and retro street lights swaying — ⸻ 📍[Location & Atmosphere] A square near Las Ramblas in the Gothic Quarter, where a dimly lit corridor and an open courtyard blend together. During the day, it is enveloped in gentle light, and at night, the lamps designed by Gaudi are lit, transforming it into a romantic space. ⏰[Recommended time] • Daytime to evening: The shadows of the palm trees and palm trees cast beautifully, making it perfect for relaxing and reading or chatting while watching the fountain✨ • Night to late night: A safe square even at night when there are many people. The terrace seats of bars and cafes are bustling, and you can enjoy an adult evening. ⸻ ✨Recommended points • The central fountain "Fountain of the Three Beauties (Fuente de las Tres Gracias)": The elegant bronze statue creates the face of the square, and the surrounding palm trees create an exotic atmosphere. • Gaudi's street lamp design: The alley lamps incorporate Gaudi-style ironwork, so you can enjoy art even when taking a walk at night. • Arcades surrounding the corridor: Peace of mind on sunny and rainy days. Convenient structure with quick access to cafes and restaurants • Don't miss the building's façade: the balconies and decorations on the 2nd and 3rd floors give it a historical architectural feel ⸻ 🎒 Tips • People watching from benches and cafes: Perfect for feeling the leisurely flow of time • A perfect walking spot for a romantic evening: Take a leisurely walk when the Gaudi lights are on • The adjacent Santa Maria del Pi Church is also nearby: You can stop by between walks around the city #AbsolutelyFreeTrip #Spain #Barcelona
