Blue paradise on the Costa Brava

On Spain's Costa Brava, about 45 miles north of Barcelona, lies a perfectly preserved medieval town just beyond the enceinte (stone wall) you see curving up the hillside. La Vila Vella (The Old Town) blends with the more modern, larger city of Tossa de Mar. Here, the 21st century melds beautifully with the 14th.

Modern hotels are just out of the camera's viewfinder. Visitors can spend their days sunbathing on the beach, diving in the sea or strolling La Vila Vella's narrow, winding streets past centuries-old architecture. Just beyond the defensive walls is the deep blue sea. It was this view that inspired French painter Marc Chagall to nickname Tossa de Mar 'blue paradise.' In fact, Tossa de Mar has long been a haven for artists. Actress Ava Gardner loved the town so much while making two movies there in the '50s that the town has erected a statue in her memory.

布拉瓦海岸蓝色天堂

在西班牙的布拉瓦海岸，巴塞罗那以北大约45英里，坐落着一个保存完好的中世纪城镇，就在你看到的蜿蜒的山坡上。拉维拉维拉（老城区）与更现代化、更大的城市托萨德马尔融合在一起。在这里，21世纪与14世纪完美融合。

现代化的旅馆就在照相机的取景器外。游客可以在沙滩上晒日光浴，在海里潜水，或者漫步在拉维拉维拉的狭窄蜿蜒的街道上，这是一座古老的建筑。就在防御墙的后面是深蓝色的大海。正是这种观点启发了法国画家马克·夏加尔给托萨德马尔起了一个绰号“蓝色天堂”。事实上，托萨德马尔长期以来一直是艺术家的天堂。女演员艾娃·加德纳（Ava Gardner）在50年代拍摄两部电影时非常喜欢这个小镇，以至于小镇在她的记忆中竖起了一座雕像。
