9. BARCELONA CATHEDRAL
From the heart of the Barri Gòtic, the Cathedral rooftop offers one of the least
changed vistas in the city. Look out over the ramshackle rooftops - some dating to
the 12th century - and the narrow alleys that spill out in all directions. There is a
small charge for the elevator to the top. See

Montserrat. The 5-minute tour over the port area costs €50 per person (maximum
five people for each journey).
