On the south side there is a zoo I did not go to the zoo, but I walked around the park and came to the Museum of Natural Science. The museum was unfortunately closed, so I continued walking around the park.

A little further away from the park is Arc de Triomf or Arco de Triunfo in Spanish. It is a triumphal arch built, by architect Josep Vilaseca i Casanovas, as the main access gate for the 1888 Barcelona World Fair. The arch crosses over the wide central promenade leading to the Ciutadella Park that now occupies the site of the world fair. It is located at the northern end of the promenade.

Part of the city where is located Basilica Santa Maria del Mar (or church Saint Mary of the Sea) is an imposing church in the Ribera district of Barcelona, Spain, built between 1329 and 1383 at the height of Aragon kingdom's maritime and mercantile preeminence. It is an outstanding example of Catalan Gothic, with a purity and unity of style that is very unusual in large medieval buildings.
