In a privileged location, between the Mediterranean Sea and the Pyrenees mountains, lies the city of Girona. It is the Capital of the province and it is also very well connected with the emblematic city of Barcelona, which is just an hour away by car and 38 minutes by train. It is also very close to the French border and cities like Perpignan (France).
Girona is a charming city with the services of a large urban centre.
The city of Girona, lays between four rivers, is a charming city and a hot spot thanks to a broad range of cultural activities at any time of the year. The combination of green areas together with centenarian old stone buildings and beautiful hidden gardens all give the old town of Girona a very special character.
Girona streets were recently the setting of Game of Thrones shooting. The city is well known for its gastronomy, as an example the province of Girona houses thirteen restaurants with seventeen Michelin stars between all of them, reflecting an exquisite combination of culinary tradition and creative spirit.

Costa Brava is a natural stage, where a lot of art masters find the charm that inspires them, and where artists find the peace and quiet and natural beauty necessary to produce their fine works. Movie stars like Elizabeth Taylor, Ava Gardner, Orson Welles, Yves Montand and Douglas Fairbanks all graced the Costa Brava with their glamour.
COSTA BRAVA, CREATIVITY AND ART ALL AROUND THE COAST
The coastal region of Girona is a beautiful mixture of old fishing towns, rocky coves, sandy beaches, and clear blue skies. In other words it is the representation of the Mediterranean in all its essence.
The Costa Brava is a landscape where nature plays the starring role in the form of three natural parks, as a magical scenery of peace and calm over the sea, but also stands out its mediaeval towns, charming little villages, mountain hamlets and archaeological sites, that show their immense historical and cultural heritage.
THE MEDITERRANEAN CULTURE
Barcelona, a vibrant coastal city nestled in northeastern Spain, enchants tourists with its eclectic blend of Gothic and modern architecture, exemplified by Antoni Gaudí's iconic Sagrada Família and Park Güell. Renowned for its lively street life, delectable cuisine, and world-class museums, Barcelona offers visitors a sensory feast, blending rich history with contemporary flair against the backdrop of the Mediterranean Sea.
THE CITY OF BARCELONA
The area is renowned for its Middle Age reminiscence, rich heritage and amazing views. The mountains are perfect for hiking, biking and hang-gliding, but also for the possibility to take an enriching trip through history, visiting the hermitages and small churches of the Romanesque Way that crosses the Catalan Pyrenees.
THE PYRENEES, MORE THAN MOUNTAINS
