Medieval Arcades of Carrer del Rec

Long animated by the irrigation canal that fed Barcelona's medieval mills, this street with stone-arched arcades offers a journey through time. The successive arcades create a shaded corridor where yesterday's merchants and today's trendy boutiques follow one another in astonishing continuity.
