ExploRamoS la BARCELONA HisTorica y DesConociDa Barrio Gótico, MontJuic, BarceloneTa, CiuDadelA,etc

Hello friends, I’m Rubén from the Masai Adventures Channel and today I bring you a new adventure, this time through the streets of Barcelona on the city’s historic route. If you want to know everything about this interesting route proposed by me, join me until the end. We’ll start the tour.

From the Barcelona train station without the main station of Barcelona, ​​the nerve center of the city where you can connect with the main train stations that circle around the city and the Barcelona metro, which has several stations relatively close and also one of the main bus stations that connect Barcelona with the

Surrounding areas and towns, therefore I consider it to be the main nerve center where you will be perfectly connected to the city’s major communications. The historical heritage of Barcelona is spread throughout the city. city ​​and covers around 4000 years of history, it is impossible to cover it all in a single video, so

We are going to concentrate on the areas that are considered the historic center of the city and that cover practically all the periods in which the known as gothic neighborhood among other areas of Barcelona which does not mean that there are not interesting things

In other parts of the city, however we will focus on this area of ​​the city in this specific video and now we continue the heritage spread throughout the city of Barcelona includes practically all the stages of history from Prehistory with the times of the Laietnos to the contemporary age we will concentrate in

The area considered the historic center that is concentrated in the surroundings of the Gothic quarter until we reach the area of ​​Plaza España unfortunately You cannot cover absolutely all the historical corners of the city, however in this video I will show you things

Even about Barcelona that they do not tell you about the hidden Barcelona. Walking around Barcelona in a private vehicle can be especially complicated. It is the second city in Spain with There are many traffic limitations for the movement of a private vehicle, so

In the event that you come to this city with your own vehicle or one that is rented, it is recommended that you look for an area like this to be able to leave it parked and use transportation later. public of Barcelona to move around the various parts of the city on the different

Routes that you can take within it and in general there are several ways to access the city of Barcelona and do the various tourist routes throughout the city that are part Of the offer in the place, one of them is the exclusive use of public transport, assuming that you are

Staying on the outskirts of Barcelona or in another part of Catalonia. For this, the point to access the city may well be or the airport. and even in the case of the airport you will end up arriving here at the main train station of Barcelona, ​​the Barcelona

Sans station through which you can move on metro bus lines or the train stations that bypass the area around the station. de sans is particularly important since it is the beginning, from my point of view, of historical Barcelona. In various

Periods that usually affect a city that has so many years of history, here you will find what was the first panoramic restaurant in the city located in the Catalunya tower, a hotel of renowned category in the city not far from the sans station and which occupied

This place until other panoramic restaurants began to emerge in the city this is where you would arrive if you come by train the sans east station It is its interior in which right inside you have a direct connection with the train lines that we have just left to get

To the Barcelona metro station and already arriving towards the Sanks station in the Barcelona metro we find the first curiosity It is one of the few central metro stations that does not have an elevator but at most an escalator. The reason for

This is a fight over what they call powers, that is, the renfe, the train station, the train operating company and the subway have an argument about who would be in charge of it maintenance of the elevator, which is why this important machinery for people does not have

This when using the subway, there are various vending machines like this one in which you can select different languages ​​Catalan Spanish English and French with various payment options such as tickets 10 trips single ticket for a single trip a ticket to the airport

Tickets that are usually used by tourists or residents in Barcelona will give you something like this what you will use later to get around the train and metro network of [Music] Barcelona la You get out and you get in and everything is perfectly signposted.

Here and now I am going to show you the solution that is usually applied at this station when you are loaded with suitcases and need an elevator. Let’s go [Music] there, sometimes they don’t work and you have to go this way until

You get there. to this area of ​​stairs in which the elevator is here and then Here just leaving the station and now from here we are going to go to one of the historic and most interesting stations in Barcelona, ​​the Plasa station [Music] span You will find this many times here, escalators that do not work and people who have to carry their suitcases up here and now we are going to go to the old Plaza España station, the first and original one that has

An interesting story to tell, here we have The station is currently being renovated, it is one of the oldest that exists in Barcelona and it has the peculiarity of being part of a particular tourist route of abandoned metro stations in the city. There is a station

With platforms included, abandoned just below this one, the reason why A calculation error was made at the time of its construction and it was built further down from where the track tunnels came from, so this station is located above the first original one, one of

The problems that I mentioned in central stations like this one. Travelers at these heights still do not have elevators and a better system to carry their suitcases. Not only do we have the plaza, a place that was built for the Barcelona Universal Exhibition

Held in the 1920s, in which we have the monument in the plaza. Spain and leading the avenue that will take you to the monju and the old pavilions we have the towers of the Plaza España inspired by a Venetian style of art and which in principle should have been a Temporary construction

And that is the reason why not much emphasis was placed on the materials with which they were made and have remained here over time until the present day and from here we begin our route of ascent to the historic and essential mountain of Monj within all the

Historical periods of Barcelona. The Monju in Catalan translates as the Mount of the Jews, this place has had a long relationship with this community for many years until its expulsion in 1492 by the Catholic Monarchs, however that relationship still continues for reasons that we will explain later.

We continue along the Explanada from the Plaza España until we reach the Magic fountain and the areas that were part of the Universal Exhibition of 1900 in Barcelona, ​​I must point out that this city has hosted two universal exhibitions at different times, one at the end of the 19th century

And another at the beginning of the 20th century shortly before the Civil War. Española At the bottom of the towers of Plaza España we have the Arenas of Barcelona, ​​which today are a shopping center and which at the time were an important Plaza de Oros that stopped being in operation around the decade

Of the 2000s and remained under construction. for a long time until the moment in which the shopping center was built and now following the line of the great Avenue that leads to the old pavilions of the universal exhibition we have the pinnacle of everything that today is the National Museum of

Art of Catalonia the headquarters of the national which is the building that you can see there in the background and which has one of the most important collections of Catalan Romanesque and Gothic art that exists in the

Area. From the doors you can see the Paseo that takes us to the Plaza España, the Sans stations and the Arenas of Barcelona, ​​just in front of the Olympic stadium, there is a monument in commemoration of the friendship between Korea and Spain made shortly after the Barcelona Olympic Games

That you can even find a small plaque with a poem written in the Korean language by a famous poet of this country, poet Choong Wa and now we are at the viewpoint of the mayor from where you can get

A great view of Barcelona but it is where you can see more clearly the relationship of the Jews with this Mount here just covered by this chair is a discreet symbol of the Star of David the Magen David

Which indicates that The cemetery is located right here in front and It dates back to the time when they were expelled by the Catholic Monarchs in 1492 and is one of the parts of the hidden history of Barcelona since ancient times. The Old Jewish cemetery is located not far

From the field of Olympic shot in Barcelona and it is in this completely abandoned state But fenced and protected by law, the Jewish community of Barcelona has been trying to make this area visible for years And some youtuber has become a certain

Important discovery of the cemetery of what was one of the Jewish communities most important in Europe from the Middle Ages, already going down the path of the Olympic shooting range we find what is today the Miramar hotel, whose building was once the headquarters of

Spanish radio television. In Catalonia, it was the headquarters of this important Spanish station. until the early 80s, when the facilities were moved to the current ones located in San Cugat del Vallés and now, right in front of the old Spanish television facilities, we find the port cable car, known in Catalan as

The Aer del P which for a price of 2.50 at the time I am doing this tour allows you to save time and get to the port area to continue the tour and have an incredible panoramic view of the city that you can enjoy in this video [ Music]

Pour chic dans un stade si on va aprs manger dans un beau restaurant bah Non mais tu c’est pas N Moi Je suis pas trs bien TR IL a des bruit super personne pas Pay Non je je que Non [Music ] Je thought pas r Je pense qu’on pas c’est pas possible Merci fait peur c’est joli mer artez votre ciné vous savez que Tous les an IL y

Aé a qui jette par la peti mch tu pré écrasé mourir dans [Music ] amazing The old cable car takes us to the coastal area, specifically to the port of Barceloneta where we can already see something of modern Barcelona such as the La Vela hotel and the beaches of Barceloneta that were made specifically for the Olympics and which

Are now used by bathers and leaving the cable car we will stop at the historic Barceloneta neighborhood, a neighborhood that arose in very particular times and that is related to the history of the castle of the Mon and would give rise to the construction of another one specifically created

For the inhabitants of this place. Leaving the cable car, we find the area of ​​what is now the Barcelona marina where we can see in the background what is known as the port clock tower, a place that looks like small but has historical importance within

Barceloneta and then the Barceloneta neighborhood which is quite developed and modernized along with the beach area and which has practically become the beach of Barcelona as it is usually known by most of tourists and visitors Although I must warn that

It is not the only one and now while we tour the Barceloneta neighborhood I am going to tell you a little history of the place while I walk you a little along the beach, the Barceloneta neighborhood emerged on what was an ancient island known as The island of Mayans, which was built artificially

By creating a dam around the 1700s, the neighborhood specifically arose at the time of the war of succession, a war in which there was a dispute over the succession. of the throne of Spain between the house of Austria and the current house That reigns in Spain the house of Bourbon,

The war would be won by the Bourbons, however, the people of Barcelona would be supporting the cause of the Austrians, the monk’s castle would be taken by the Bourbon troops And a From here, a terrible repression would arise against the people who lived in a neighborhood that was located where

The citadel park is currently located. All those houses were destroyed to build that military fortress that existed in that park and that today few remain. trails to move them all to this area that you can see now and which is a tourist and recreation area. However,

Here this population was practically confined, priority was given to people with a seafaring life and they were prohibited from erecting houses or buildings that exceeded a certain height to prevent them from obstructing the vision of the artillery. The fortress of the citadel

Reached a considerable extent and was designed almost exclusively to keep under control the population that had been mobilized in Sosa to Barceloneta over time already in the 10th century. This fortress would be destroyed and converted into the current park that you will see later.

Currently, it is an important tourist attraction. It is one of the main beaches in Barcelona, ​​which it must be said was developed artificially at the time of the Olympics of the year and It remains this way to this day. The area has evolved over all

These years and has become an important tourist attraction with important historical heritage that we will see later. Here we have a list of the beaches in Barcelona Starting with the area From the port, Borbó beach is populated by sea jungle until you reach the famous Marina beach. Marbella beach specifically, which

Is usually considered the best, is generally a neighborhood that was built symmetrically to facilitate ventilation through its streets , as priority was given to its inhabitants being mainly from the life of seafaring and fishing, the majority of people who lived here at the time of its foundation were seafarers,

This has usually been a popular neighborhood of Barcelona where even There have been violent episodes with the police in its time. Today it is one of the tourist attractions of the city mainly due to the existence of its beaches. Although it has a

Relatively unknown historical heritage, which is what we are going to show below, however . In a neighborhood like this one in Spain, it still draws attention that this floor is fenced in this way, which already says a lot about possible intrusions into houses. In this

Place, the fence they have here in the houses draws a lot of attention, which already It says a lot about the possible intrusions that there may be in this place if

They know you are not there. Look at this on the windows and you can see that they are bars from a long time ago. People even live at street level here, it is not something that is very common in this area It must be said in

Spain, but you can appreciate a popular neighborhood that in some areas has become a touristic football environment [Applause] you have been able to see something of the football atmosphere [Applause] you can see that there is fear of intrusions and occupations in this

[Applause] [Music] place This is the hidden Barcelona, ​​the Barcelona that no one shows you and already continuing on the way towards the historic center we will find the church of the church built in the 1700s at the time when this was converted in a kind

Of prison neighborhood and which is one of the historical attractions of this area of ​​Barcelona and where you can see good donations from people with food for the church we have the San Mel church foundation in 1753 to 55 and it is understood that there was some modification in 1850 to

63 We are now leaving this neighborhood closely linked to seafaring life to begin to enter the area of ​​the historic center of Barcelona with incredible details such as the lighting of other times, it is a very touristy place you will find a lot of people in this place without a doubt Some and right in front we have an area where initially some of those who rebelled against the Bourbons during the siege of Barcelona 1713 1714 were executed and which are some of whom later ended up those who did not die here In the Barceloneta area, I initially capture everything that needs to be

Captured with an inscription from 1626. The entrance is that way, here in principle is the symbology that is attributed to a possible relationship with Freemasonry. Unfortunately there is little lighting but here There is a gear wheel that experts also say has something to do with Freemasonry. There are

Freemason symbols all over the religious center. I find them particularly in the area of ​​the floor, moving away from the Cathedral of Santa María del Mar, you can have a panoramic view. del borne right in the direction of what is now the municipal market the born market

Typical Catalan bohemian neighborhood well guys we are inside the born market the first iron building made in Barcelona in which just below it are the remains of El Neighborhood destroyed during the War of Spanish Succession and which was part of the area from which the

Inhabitants were forced to move to Barceloneta [Music] was completely buried for years and is now one of the things you can come to see here completely free you can see a little How They lived it is incredible that they have simply buried all this which gives us an idea of ​​the destruction that took place here here it says that this was an open canal known as the rec contal it is believed that it was built around the

10th century after Christ and which was still in use until the 20th century. It is simply impressive, there is no doubt that it shows a little how they lived in those times. Look, they had stone stairs and everything could be climbed, so in some cases the depth It is considerable,

You can see that it went even further down, there wanted to be even more layers underneath [Music] the space is quite well musicalized and is part of the history of the city and already leaving the born market behind We head towards the area that was the citadel the great fortress built expressly

To retain the inhabitants of Barceloneta among other things It is a fairly large landscaped space within the city that was the one occupied by the original fortress in which there are a series of spaces in which we are not going to go into in depth today since they even give space for a specific video about

The area So that you can see some details of the buildings and what you can find and a panoramic view of the streets around here a panoramic view of the park and its [Music ] environment The citadel was always a symbol of repression for the people of Barcelona at the time and that is why the local authorities, after just over 100 years, requested the removal of the fortress, which in reality never had great military utility and It ended up being demolished to create this

Garden space that was prepared for the Universal Exhibition of 1888 with a series of buildings. There are still a series of minor military units within the promenade reaching almost to the entrance of what is currently the Barcelona Zoo, but this is now It is

Part of another story and now leaving the Citadel Park we will go to one of the historical attractions with special meaning as you will see below well. We have already left the area of ​​the Arc de Triomphe promenade and we are going through the area of ​​El Barrio de La Princesa as

It is known through Carrer de la Princesa. If we continue straight ahead we have to reach what is known as the Gothic quarter of Barcelona and once we are there I will explain some details of this place as an anecdote. Following Carrer de la Princesa we will arrive. to the

Area of ​​the Layetana road which we will talk about later and also not far away we have the access road to the museum which is not part of the theme of this video but I will leave the information

For those who like this type of art, we leave the Carrer de la Princesa area to enter the area of ​​the Layetana road, which refers to the ancient Iberian people before the Romans who inhabited this area. In principle, this road was made later in life. Romans in honor of

Them, here we go to the cathedral of Santa María del Pi and from here we go to the area of ​​what is known as the Gothic quarter where we will have access to various historical periods of Barcelona up to the most ancient times.

Although Nowadays it is imperceptible due to the urban development of Barcelona, ​​we find a small rise that in Roman times was a hill and that was the highest point of Roman Barcelona, ​​Mount Taber, which is currently located

In the historic center of the city. and now I’ll tell you a little secret, let’s wait to pass. So that you can see this, the reality is that the Gothic quarter of Barcelona, ​​that is, an entire area of ​​Barcelona that is completely built in this

Artistic style, the term does not exist, it was invented by an architect. of the development to adapt the historic center in a way that is easily recognizable for tourists. But the reality is that this area of ​​Barcelona has never existed. Soon we will arrive at Mount Taber,

In reality, Barcelona or La barcino Romana, which is what Barcelona was called in those times, it was not too big It was a small walled city in the Roman province with [Music] with with this small Mount as the highest point of the entire Settlement Dale I always have my spontaneous ones now We are in the Plaza San area where the town hall and the general our route is through here right towards the area where the temple of Augustus is located and ready exactly where the Old Roman temple of Augustus is located, it is located exactly

Above the 16.9 m Mount Taber which was in its At the moment the highest point of Roman Barcelona, ​​we are going to pass by here a little so that you can see it. In principle, the temple is closed and neighbors live in this building. It is something very typical and

Common in cities like Barcelona. Here we have what remains of the temple. of Augustus there are the columns the little that remains of him already descending from the temple of Augustus on Mount Taber We head towards the Plaza San Yauma where we find the headquarters of the Barcelona city council and the Palau de la general and then pass by an area that touches on different periods of Barcelona in which we will also find the Bishop’s Bridge built at the beginning of the 20th century. Unlike what

Is believed, everyone believes that it is something medieval and that in principle it also has some symbol [ Masonic music] that we are going to try later not far from Plaza Catalunya we have this Roman necropolis the Roman sepulchral route that was discovered in some works excavated

Around the 2000s the space has been enlarged with the passage of time until reaching be the place that you are going to contemplate now are a series of tombs with a viewpoint from above and that in principle extend even further below the works of the buildings as can be

Seen in that space that is located there Roman Barcelona is practically located below the current one as can be seen in some tombs like the one that is tucked there towards the end and well here we are in a part of Barcelona where you

Can see two mixtures of Gothic art along with the remains of Roman Barcelona. that these walls that you are seeing here are the remains of what remains of the old Roman wall of La barcino Romana in which you can also see those of the Aqueduct, which

Is the one we have there that supplied water to the Roman city and that simply Some pieces of the old wall were used to later make an access door that was also used in medieval times and here we will reach the Pon del Bba or the

Bishop’s Bridge, which has a remarkable history to highlight and well, we have already reached the bridge area of ​​[Music] bishop who in principle is also attributed some relationship with Freemasonry, in principle we have to try to find some symbol that is associated with the Freemasons according to what is said about this [Music]

Route in principle, there it is, there is a skull. This is what which is attributed as a Masonic symbol, I think I remember the monument, especially the skull is mentioned. Those who are knowledgeable in

This are the ones who will be able to say if it is like that or not. From here we would arrive at San Yauma Square and now we are going to turn around so that you can appreciate the pondal bispa but wants

Another [Music] angle and not far from El palud de la generalidad the Barcelona city hall in the Plaza San yauma we find the limits of what was the Old Jewish quarter of Barcelona specifically known as El calu and that you are going to recognize that you are

Inside it because of the What are the streets called? An attempt has been made to revalue Barcelona’s Jewish past in which there were two neighborhoods, one larger and one smaller, but I won’t talk too much about this in this video because I already made a specific one about the Jewish community of

Barcelona, ​​it can be seen in a series of details that you find within what was the Jewish neighborhood but to know these details I will simply leave you the information but I invite you to watch the video in which I speak specifically about the Jewish heritage in Barcelona, ​​leaving the government buildings

We pass to the central Ferrán street at the end of which we will reach what is known as the rambla, actually called La rambla de canaletas and the Plaza Real and just leaving At the end of Ferrán street we find the Plaza

Real area, an important area of ​​the historic center of Barcelona that you cannot miss, which has become in recent years an important center of gastronomic tourism in the city where many of the best Restaurants in the Catalan capital are

Located in the area, not exactly the best with Michelin stars, but some of the best known. We are on the Rambla where there were formerly animal sales stalls. At the beginning of the 21st century, the city council combined them with a retransfora. of the business

Due to the protests of the animal shelters, they ended up being converted into souvenir shops and newsstands among other things and right in the background we have the monument of Columbus about which there is the controversy of Where the famous Genoese navigator is pointing, some

Say he is pointing. in the direction of America, others say no, rather it points in the direction of Italy or Mallorca. That is part of the controversy of this famous monument that is currently under construction and that is why it cannot be shown in a better way, however you cannot

Stop passing by the Marseille bar if goods al raval is one of the most historic places in the city. It is a place with 200 years of history where such famous people as Ernest Hemingway Picasso or Salvador Dalí himself among others passed by. Characters who came to drink

The mythical drink of absinthe to theoretically get inspired were regular customers of this place and were some of the characters who passed by the chairs of this place and not far from the tranas or real shipyards is the Rabal neighborhood. the multicultural neighborhood par excellence

Of Barcelona, ​​around 60 percent of the population of this neighborhood is foreigners of various origins and nationalities and in the past it was a place where a lot of smuggling and extraterrestrial activity took place, in which tunnels were dug that passed through under the walls of Barcelona to the port to

Be able to bring contraband into the city and now it is this multicultural neighborhood that you can see and well this has been all about historical Barcelona if you liked this video please give me a like subscribe to the Channel share it and support it on social networks Thank you very much
