The area around the old center of the city was walled off for security reasons way back in medieval times. Girona 's barriers also are way up a hill, which no doubt helped keep those pesky invaders at bay.
There's no one trying to take over the city these days. Therefore, the place has become something of a nice if hilly park. The views of the surrounding areas are excellent, and the landscapes is done extremely well. It's a nice place for a stroll if you don't mind some steps.
