Barrio Alto Explanation: This is just the name of an area so I would leave it in Spanish Barrio Alto vuelve a denunciar el mal estado del centro Los vecinos piden al Ayuntamiento que actúe en varios solares abandonados que dan mala imagen Tras denunciar hace dos meses el estado de varios solares abandonados en la calle Santa Lucía, la asociación de vecinos Barrio Alto volvió a reclamar ayer al Ayuntamiento que actúe en cinco solares vacíos que, por su suciedad, dan una mala imagen de la ciudad. http://barrioaltoportuense.blogspot.co.uk/ Like most Spanish cities, Sanlúcar is full of Catholic churches! Nuestra Señora de la O in Barrio Alto is one of the most important churches in the area https://katestraveltips.com/2015/09/10/12-things-to-do-in-sa... |

Cádiz - Welcome AGP www.welcomeagp.com/en/cadiz/ Puerto de Santa María: This bright, open town, given extra beauty by its centre .... The Barrio Alto is the historic centre with the town's monuments, narrow streets ... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2017-04-26 11:41:33 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The reason for my answer is that "barrio alto" can refer to a neighbourhood, or just be part of the town, like town centre or old quarter. Areas of towns and cities are usually translated or explained; judería, casco antiguo, centro histórico, to name but a few. So to accommodate readers with no understanding of Spanish an explanation in brackets is helpful. |
