2Vic: Markets and Medieval Squares
Nestled in the Catalan countryside, Vic is a hidden gem known for its bustling weekly market held in the central square, Plaza Mayor. About 1.5 hours from Barcelona, it offers a glimpse into authentic Catalan culture.
The city is rich in medieval and Romanesque architecture, with highlights including the Episcopal Museum, Vic Cathedral, and historic streets that feel frozen in time. It’s also a great place to try traditional Catalan cuisine, especially cured meats for which the region is famous.
Why go? For a taste of authentic Catalan traditions and an atmosphere far removed from the city bustle.
