I went here during the flower festival (free admission to see the flower displays in every room), so my experience at the Arab Baths was not typical. However, having been to the Arab Bath museum in Cordoba, I found them to be a little lacking. Certainly it's very old, and the area of town that it's in is quite lovely,...

I've been there during may, Girona temps de flors (flower time). It's free! But you have to spend long time on long queue...Decorated with flowers, beautiuful! And then you can have good views to the cathedral.
