Barcelona City - Ciutadella Park

Barcelona City - Ciutadella Park

Barcelona, also called by locals Barna, has become one of my top beloved cities (besides London and Athens).
I have got quite a collection of photos taken around the city and today I decided to share the ones that I took in Parc de la Ciutadella ("Citadel Park").
This park was built in 19th century in the place of former military citadel. It is located in the city centre, right on the corner of Ciutat Vella ("Old City"), and 5 minutes walk from the Barceloneta Beach.

All photos have been taken with my Motorola G5 smartphone, so the panoramic shots have a bit worse quality.
