If you're traveling in a group of more than four people, you can ask one of the taxi stand attendants to call a van taxi for an additional 4.30 EUR.

The charming Hotel Neri places you closer to Barcelona Cathedral, dedicated to Saint Eulália, one of the patronesses of Barcelona. Its construction began in the 13th century and lasted more than 200 years. The fate of this saint is shrouded in many legends and the only certain thing is that she was a young Christian girl, born in 292 in Mérida. She died at the age of 12, and it's related to the cruel rule of Emperor Diocletian, who persecuted Christians. The circumstances under which she was caught, imprisoned, and then publicly tortured are unclear. At the adjacent courtyard, you may encounter a flock of thirteen snow-white geese. They symbolize the martyrdom of Saint Eulalia because according to one of the legends, the girl was reincarnated as a goose after her death.
