What is the best area to stay in Besalu?
The best area to stay in Besalú is within the historic Old Town, particularly near the iconic Pont Fortificat (fortified bridge).This area is the heart of Besalú, characterized by its medieval architecture, cobblestone streets, and the striking 12th-century bridge that serves as its main entrance.

It's a very walkable district, great for exploring on foot.Couples often find the Old Town ideal for a romantic and historic getaway.
