Girona, northeast of Catalonia, has witnessed several sieges and been captured by various armies across its history. Some of the original fortifications and city walls have been restored and form a ring around the old city which attracts tourists and is called the Passeig de la Muralla. The city has an approximate population of around 100,000 and is the capital of the Girona Province; it is often at the top of the list when it comes to which city most people would like to live. One of the most visited sights in Girona is its cathedral which replaced a more ancient building used by the Moors. The cathedral in Girona today was built in the Spanish Gothic style with works by Valencian silversmith Pere Bernec inside.

The Old Town has narrow streets and is located on the east bank of the river, and many tourists make their way to the "Rambla" which is an area that runs alongside its banks and is the location for many restaurants and street cafes. A short distance from Girona is the city of Figueres. The city is very popular with visitors who appreciate art and the works of Salvador Dali in particular. There are many museums and galleries to visit but the Dali museum draws in more visitors than any other museum in Spain except the Prado in Madrid.
