Girona Immortal
Food/Drink
Francesc cooks great meals every day but Monday. A fantastic take-away (but you can dine in the Garden of Angels just across the road, under orange trees, surrounded by the ancient walls of Girona) that offers a top-quality wide selection of Catalan cuisine - meats, rice, pasta, salads, etc. Lunch menu = around 7 Euros. Go for it!
P.S. The owner is very nice.

An iconic Gironian establishment and only around the corner from the apartment. You cannot beat a dinner at the tables outside on the steps (they featured in ‘Games of the Throne’).

Cool places
The square behind el Teatre Municipal is an oasis of peace and harmony and open space. Only a few minutes’ walk from the apartment. Go and enjoy it before it is ruined with a busy cafe/bar/restaurant scene. It is the other side of the Town Hall/L’Ajuntament.

This gem of a garden is hidden behind the city walls north of the Old Town, right at the start of the road that leads up to Montjuic. A perfect place for a luncheon under orange trees.

An old fort with good views. If you are into rock climbing - it is a decent bouldering site with a few short sport routes.

Completely underrated, under-visited, an underdog. Built by Napoleon - just opposite from the Cathedral (it was meant to serve as boulevard leading to it). A park with tall trees and plenty of space.

And a river goes through our city… It meanders and gives home to seagulls, ducks and mosquitoes. Best enjoyed out a window of La Terra, Carrer Ballesteries.

Sightseeing
It is only a short ride away - 15km - and it is special, smooth and warm. A great scenery. Ride or walk around it and then have lunch near the Tourist Office (Oficina de Turisme).
