Building on my exploration of La Barceloneta, the vibrant pulse of the city still humming in my ears, I set off towards Ciutadella Park (or Parc de la Ciutadella). Following the sun-drenched coast, I stumbled upon Estación de Francia, a majestic railway station dating back to the 19th century, greeted me with its imposing brick facade. Closed for Olympic rejuvenation, it now stood proudly, a testament to Barcelona's rich past.
My path then led me past the lively chatter of Barcelona Zoo and the stately Palau del Parlament. Finally, I emerged into the verdant embrace of Ciutadella Park. A gaggle of tourists materialized under the shade of palm trees, their cameras clicking in unison. A spark of curiosity ignited within me – what could draw such enthusiasm to this tranquil haven?
Little did I know, an architectural symphony awaited, poised to steal my breath and unravel the park's captivating secrets. The Cascada Monumental orchestrated a dazzling dance of water and tile, a splash of Catalan charm in the heart of Barcelona. Towering above, the majestic Arco de Triunfo whispered tales of past victories, its arches framing the sun-kissed sky.
The mystery of the tourists unraveled with each step, and I was eager to dive deeper into the magic woven into this urban oasis on December 28, 2019.
