Evening walk through the Old town

I bought a new one 3 days before my departure and missed this moment. The hardware is cheap, but the tripod is dead without it. And the corresponding shops are closed for the Christmas holidays.

Entering the territory of the Upper city through the gatePortal del Roser ( on the map), I found myself in the palol square, which got its name from the old municipal grain warehouse (Volta del Palol).
