This book opens the doors on Barcelona's practically unknown gardens, a private, peaceful world hiding just beyond tall gates and high walls. A world made up of medieval cloisters, centuries-old gardens passed down from generation to generation, inner courtyards, spectacular rooftops, charming family gardens and newer, more contemporary gardens. Spaces that arouse the senses and stir the emotions and which show Barcelona, far from ever having lost its gardening spirit, has kept it over time and history.
