Photographes à Gérone

Girona is compact, walkable and almost theatrically photogenic. The Onyar houses hang over the water in ochre and rust, the Jewish Quarter is a maze of stone arches that stays cool and shaded at midday, and the cathedral's eighty-six-step staircase gives a shot with genuine scale — the one viewers recognise from television. Walking the medieval walls at the end of the day puts the whole old town and the Pyrenean foothills behind your subjects. It is under forty minutes by high-speed train from Barcelona and the natural base for the Costa Brava.
