Description: Barcelona is a city that has it all, an urban centre of modernist architecture, world-class shopping and delicious food and drink, bordered by a long, sandy beach and undulating hills.  Yet this thriving, bustling metropolis also has a quiet side - tranquil spots where you can relax and enjoy a moment of cal.  These restful green spaces, hidden squares, cool galleries and friendly bodgeas offer an escape from the crowds and the opportunity to appreciate a magnificent city in peace. Quiet Barcelona reveals more than 120 quiet places to eat, sleep, swim and wander, from restaurants and cultural centres to museums and hused houses of worship.  Weather a local or a visitor, this book will help you discover a new side to one of the world's favorite cities, and encourage you to seek out some secret spots of your own.
