We took a detour off the Ramblas to explore the unfortunately named neighborhood of Pi. It's an odd place, sandwiched between the Ramblas and the old city. Surprisingly, it feels pretty desolate considering it's just steps away from the Ramblas hordes. The narrow passageways link three different plazas, each with its own medieval church and a small cafe. It's quite atmospheric, although it doesn't seem connected to the rest of the city.
