After spending a few days in Roses Spain, Will and I wanted to see what a Spanish city looked like and wanted to experience more of the culture. Since Barcelona was a little too far, we googled nearby cities and came across Girona. We LOVED it! Such a beautiful old city located in the northeastern Catalonia region. The colors were amazing, the decorations were incredible, the bridges were super cool, and the city was very medieval. Fun fact: Some "Game of Thrones" episodes have been filmed here.

Medieval Walls
I'm not sure which I loved more, the colorful buildings and streets or the giant medieval wall around the city. I felt like I was on the great wall of China. (On a much smaller scale) The city wall goes across the eastern border of the city and the views from above were amazing!
