PARC DEL LABERINT


On Wednesday, March 19th, my new friends from New YAWK City and I, headed to the Parc del Laberint, Catalan for Park of the Labyrinth, which is located quite north of Barcelona near one of the city's universities. (Quick side note: I realized that I never mentioned that Catalan is the official language of Barcelona as Barcelona is a part of the province of Catalonia). The park was built in the 18th century on the grounds of a mansion. It includes beautiful mythological statues, gardens, and of course, a very cool labyrinth. We got through it pretty easily and quickly, but then headed up some stairs from where you could see the labyrinth in its entirety and realized we probably only went through a quarter of it. But, at least we didn't get lost!
