We describe here a city walk whose purpose is to increase Public Awareness in Science, by locating proper spots in the City of Girona and connecting them to common, adapted magic performances and curiosities. By analyzing a few items of this Itinerary, we show that Magic is a useful tool, when combined with the attraction of a City architecture, heritage and particularities, to attract visitors to Science.
