  • Gemma González E3E IES Icaria Primer Recorregut: Pedralbes I Zona Universitària Descripció Del Recorregut
    Recorreguts per Barcelona Gemma González E3E IES Icaria Primer recorregut: Pedralbes i Zona universitària Descripció del recorregut Hem començat el recorregut a la parada de metro Maria Cristina. Al sortir a la dreta, podem veure una escultura modernista i un carrer molt ample i amb bastant trànsit (l’Avinguda Diagonal). Al nostre davant, hi ha un gran Corte Inglés. A la nostra esquerra, podem veure l’edifici central de La Caixa, de color negre i rodó. També veiem diferents edificis amb oficines, petits restaurants i bars. A la dreta, hi han pisos per a viure i bastants bancs i fonts. Observem que el carrer està molt net. Caminant per l’avinguda, direcció Llobregat, arribem a la plaça Pius XII. És una plaça molt ample i rodona, i al centre es trobava una espècie de petit parc (Uns quants bancs, arbres i gespa). Hem pujat per l’Av. Pedralbes fins a arribar a la cantonada Manel Girona. En aquest carrer, ja hem notat com les cases son molt més residencials, els jardins i els carrers estan molt cuidats i molt nets. Els edificis que hi ha als costats con rectangulars i quadrats, amb molts balcons amples i uns jardins particulars molt grans. Curiosament, podem apreciar que hi ha dos portes: una per als residents de les cases i una altra més petita per al “Servicio” (Servei). Arribem a la cantonada Manel Girona.Trobem una porta amb un drac de ferro al centre. Es un drac fet per Antoni Gaudí (1852- 1926). Creiem que aquesta porta es la entrada al jardí Botànic de la Universitat de Barcelona.

His most famous and unfinished masterpiece, La Sagrada Familia, is the emblem of the city. Like the basilica, Barcelona takes traditional ideas and presents them in new, even outrageous, forms. And the city's bursts of building and innovation give the impression that it's still being conceived. Both the church and the city can be tough places to get a handle on, yet their complexity is invigorating rather than forbidding. Since it hosted the Summer Olympics in 1992, Barcelona has been on the hot list of European destinations. The staging of the Universal Forum of Cultures in 2004 also raised the city's profile. Over the past decade, better infrastructure, increased cruise ship traffic and a reputation for gastronomic excellence have put Barcelona at the forefront of European city destinations, but recent political activity has affected the tourism industry and economy of the city. Sights—La Sagrada Familia; La Pedrera; La Catedral (La Seu); Santa Maria del Mar. Museums—Museu Picasso; Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya; Fundacio Joan Miro; Museu d'Historia de la Ciutat; Museu Maritim de Barcelona; Caixaforum. Memorable Meals—Lunch at Escriba Xiringuito on the seafront; high-end Mediterranean fare at Tragaluz; fashionable, inventive dishes at Semproniana; Albert Adria's Nikkei cuisine at Pakta; creative, seasonal Catalan fare at Gresca.
