The footprints of history in the old quarter
The city of Girona has a historical centre worthy of being visited on foot.
In the old quarter you can travel through more than 2,000 years of history starting from two fortified enclosures, the Força Vella and the Medieval Eixample. The Jewish Quarter (the Call), with its beautiful streets and arcaded squares, is an interesting starting point to explore Girona, a city with almost a hundred museums, a lively cultural scene, a wide range of shops and plenty of opportunities to discover the region's gastronomy. Some episodes of Game of Thrones were filmed there, which gives an idea of the atmosphere and beauty of its streets.
If you have a day off studying, a perfect plan is a trip to the beaches on the Costa Brava, with its picturesque fishing villages.
