The New Barcelona tour
This itinerary juxtaposes radical contemporary architecture with the living industrial heritage of the “Catalan Manchester,” a paradigm of Barcelona’s industrial textile revolution and the ferment of a new social class: the Catalan bourgeoisie.
Radiant, technologically advanced corporate glass buildings coexist with the old brick factories, now converted into vibrant museums and universities in the 22@ District, dedicated to knowledge, innovation, and new technology activities. The Forum area, the symbolic culmination of the paradigmatic Diagonal Avenue that leads to the Mediterranean, concludes the route of a new Barcelona, offering panoramic views from a rooftop terrace.
