Text from Frommer's Magazine about Girona, in the Top 10 destinations 2012 of the world:
Exuberant Barcelona has long hogged the limelight, but its little sister Girona is stepping out from the wings. This diminutive city in northern Catalonia packs a cultural punch that is the envy of many a larger destination, with a superb dining scene to match. Girona's historic quarter, a secretive jumble of medieval mansions and courtyards crowned by a magnificent cathedral, is piled up on the eastern bank of the River Ter. To the west of the river, elegant avenues laid out during the 19th century are lined with smart boutiques and cafés. The lofty peaks of the Pyrenees form a violet smudge on the horizon and the rugged coves of the Costa Brava are just a short drive away.
Plunge into the time-capsule of Girona's Barri Vell (Old Quarter) to discover Roman walls, Arabic-style baths and one of the best preserved medieval Jewish ghettos (El Call) in Europe. The ancient stone streets culminate in the mighty cathedral, which boasts the largest Gothic nave in Christendom and an extravagantly sculpted cloister. Peer down on the huddle of ancient rooftops from the walkway atop the medieval walls, then stroll across the River Ter for a spot of shopping. Catalan cuisine is renowned the world over, and in Girona you'll be spoiled for choice: grab a counter table at the market for a filling dish of the day, check out the contemporary creations at a glossy new tapas bar, or push the boat out at gastronomic mecca Celler de Can Roca, voted second best restaurant in the world by Restaurant magazine in 2011. The best restaurant was El Bulli located in Girona too but now is a foundation.
The climate of Girona region is the typically Mediterranean one. The proximity with the coast gives a soft temperatures during all the year.
During the spring there are some sunny days with pleasant temperatures, which will allow you to enjoy the privileged natural environment.
The summers, quite warm, they allow to carry out every type of aquatic activities.
In the autumn, however, the rains are frequent.
The winters are soft and dry and the temperature.
The Banyoles / Porqueres area
The most interesting place in Banyoles to visit, is the Olympic Banyoles lake that it was the olympic city of rowing at 1992.
The lake represents the origin and main symbolic identity of the town of Banyoles.
The lake and its associated lacustrine basin are regarded as the largest karstic stretch on the Iberian Peninsula, and make up an environmental system of enormous value.
It's located to the West of the town, it was declared part of the Plan for Spaces of National Interest (Pla d’Espais d’Interès Nacional, PEIN) by the Catalonia Generalitat. In 2003, it was included in the Ramsar List of Wetlands of International Importance, and has been put forward for inclusion in the Natura 2000 Network for the Mediterranean region.
In addition, the Banyoles Town Council, as well as the local population, are petitioning for it to be declared a Nature Reserve.
Besides, it is important to visit the Banyoles town too!.
Banyoles’ historical centre houses the origins of the medieval town and the town itself.
It is an historical nucleus built in the shade of the Sant Esteve Monastery. The Benedictine cenobium eventually led to the foundation of the old town, which took place from the 9th century onwards.
Cobbled streets, little squares and cozy corners, civil and religious buildings, art and the water flowing through the canals from the lake all come together in a unique town centre that merits special attention.
Besides, there are more places to visit such as the Preshistoric Caves of Serinyà, Besalú village, the Natural Park of Volcanic Zone of La Garrotxa...
