Maria, Maria, Maria! The Best Guide in Girona!
... off for a tour of the old city!
Lined with incredible cobble stoned streets along the River Onyar, many have pointed the city out to be comparable to Venice with its "Cases de L'Onyar", these picturesque houses hanging over the river with an incredible view of the city and the snowy mountain tops in the background.
With the famous church of Sant Feliu, the incredible façades of the Girona Cathedral and the stunning Roman City Walls and Fortresses, Girona gave ...
