Pedralbes Monastery in Barcelona
About
The Pedralbes Monastery, located in the namesake district, is unlike most modest prayer facilities. Here, opulence and tranquility, beauty, and humility coexist in an amazing way.
The courtly monastery, like the entire district, was literally awash in gold, generously spilled from the state treasury. The cell belonging to the abbess, painted from floor to ceiling with scenes of Christ's Passion along with the joys of Mary, deserves special attention. The "crown" of the complex is the unfinished tower with eight sides, below which you can see the portal and a row of family coats of arms.

Beautiful and magical place. Calming place, where you can enjoy historical art monuments, garden and the whole monastery.

No había estado a pesar de ser de Barcelona y me encantó, volveré en breve para conocerlo más.

Facilement atteignable par le Bus Turistic de la ville de Barcelone, en Espagne, le Monastère de Pedralbes est une cible à ne pas manquer lors de votre prochain voyage. Son cloître est orné d'une collonade harmonieuse, avec son plan d'eau au milieu et un vieux puits photogénique. Les photographes de Photolator ont été agréablement surpris par la qualité de l'acceuil et des trésors exposés dans la grande salle à l'étage. Quand il fait chaud, se promener dans la cour intérieure est une visite facile et agréable. Vous pourrez aussi visiter le jardin arrière ou on cultive les plantes d'époque.
