You roll away from Tallers 45 into a city that moves as fast as its architecture looks—clean bike lanes, shifting mosaics of stone and glass, and the constant pulse of the sea ahead. The air carries salt from Barceloneta and the faint scent of espresso from a corner cafe; your guide sets the pace, steering you through narrow Eixample streets toward the sculpted curves of Gaudí.
