Coffee Break at the Arc de Triomf in Barcelona

I was just walking around the city centre when I came across this elegant landmark of Barcelona: The ‘Arc de Triomf’ in Neo-Mudejar style.

Coffee, and I mean espresso in Spain is always good.

Then I spotted this bar café (Bar Lleida) with an outdoor terrace across the arc. The perfect place to have coffee break from my Barcelona stroll and enjoy the view of the Triumphal Arch. The downside though of this place is the traffic and a little bit of dust coming from the passing vehicles. Perhaps not an issue for most people unless you have very sensitive skin like me.

The red brick arch is located very near the Madrid Atocha Railway Station.

The arch was built in 1889.
