The Gothic Quarter of Barcelona
Located in the old town of Barcelona, Spain, the Gothic quarter is perfect to understand the roots and development of the city in such a medieval atmosphere. With an intricate labyrinth of streets around the Cathedral, and other ancient hidden gems, the architecture in this center is diverse and eccentric. In this journey, you’ll discover the history of the Catalan culture from the Roman roots of the city and paramount medieval buildings. Join us for unique, local insight into the Gothic Quarter and discover why it is a must-see destination!
Women of Bloomsbury Walking Tour
March is Women’s History Month, and we’re making it international! In London, the district of Bloomsbury has historically been linked to culture, intellects, artists and writers. Today while exploring the picturesque neighborhood with its cozy public squares, you can stumble across numerous blue plaques and statues marking where notable women once lived, worked, and died. Virtually walk in the footsteps of writer Virginia Woolf, World War Two Spy Noor Inayat Khan, abolitionist Mary Prince, and Britain’s first female dentist Lilian Lindsay.
