MyBarrio market is a community of local design.

It used to be a cement factory. Ricardo Bofill turned it into his architecture studio.

In 1938 during the Spanish Civil war, Francisco Franco laid siege to the city of Barcelona. On the 30 September 1938, one of Franco's bombs fell on the church killing 30 people most of whom were children from the School of Sant Philip Neri and some were refugee children from Madrid where the church had been turned into a make-shift orphanage. As people pulled survivors from the rubble, a second bomb hit the square, killing 12 more bringing the death toll to 42. It was the second worst bombing hit in Barcelona during the war. Evidence of the bombings can be seen in the pockmarked walls of the church.

One of my favorite buildings of the city

Sunny days I like to go to the Palau Robert Garden. Is an small garden placed in the middle of the city. The palace works today as an exhibition space, so after reading the newspaper under the sunshine, you can visit an exhibition. I love to go there to feel myself surrounded of abundant vegetation and the songs of the birds. It makes me be in a good mood.
