Neighbourhood: El Born / La Ribera
The labyrinth that is El Born becomes most apparent the moment you turn down one of its side streets. But this is one of the few labyrinths you might actually enjoy losing your way in. After all, there are few places that live and breathe such exciting energy regardless of the time of day. This neighbourhood seamlessly transcends the old and new parts of the city, reflected in its vast array of restaurants ranging from fancy Michelin-star establishments to trendy fusion restaurants. Here you'll find historical and cultural attractions such as the popular Picasso Museum and the Gothic cathedral La Santa Maria del Mar, where you just might be able to catch a traditional Catalan wedding.

This bandstand in Parc de la Ciutadella stands in memory of Sonia Rescalvo Zafra, a transexual who was murdered by a group of Neo-Nazis in the park in1991. A murder which became a turning point in public attitudes towards transexuals in Spain.
The bandstand isn't much to see, but plus one for the gesture.
