Like Santa Maria del Mar, the church of Santa Maria del Pi is an example of Mediterranean Gothic architecture, though its bulky, somber interior makes its soaring and elegant sister ship seem even more astounding by comparison. The gigantic rose window is best seen from inside in the late afternoon. The adjoining squares, Plaça del Pi and Plaça de Sant Josep Oriol, are two of the liveliest, most appealing spaces in the Gothic Quarter.
