Visit Barcelona - Barcelona is Spain's second city - but don't
tell the inhabitants that. To them Barcelona is the most fabulous
city on earth. And they may just be right.
Barcelona is one of the few great European cities by the sea. While
Madrid withers in the summer sun, Barcelona chills out on its beach.
Its main thoroughfare, Las Ramblas, runs all the way from the
quayside through the heart of the city and it is here that you
should start your tour of one of Europe's most exciting cities.
Barcelona is busy all day, but really comes into its own at night
when Spanish and foreign visitors come out to parade up and down the
streets and relax in the hundreds of bars and restaurants on offer.
The Catalan capital is widely known as a party city and you will
inevitably get carried along with the spirit. But don't stay out too
late - there is plenty to see by day.
You particularly don't want to miss the fabulous architecture of
Gaudí, Barcelona's favourite son. His work litters the city, but his
greatest monument is the Sagrada Familia - an unfinished cathedral
that looks like something between a vast Gothic church and a space
ship from a sci-fi movie. Other Gaudí highlights include La Pedrera
- a brilliantly weird converted terrace block in the heart of the
city - and le Parc Guell, a surreal haven on a hill high above the
bustle of the city.
The Gothic Quarter and Montjuic are also well worth exploring, with
ancient and ornate architecture everywhere you look. Amidst all this
stands Barcelona's other cathedral, the imposing edifice of La Seu.
Sports fans won't want to miss the Olympic area or the museum at the
Nou Camp, FC Barcelona's famous stadium, where the hundreds of
trophies the illustrious club has won are on display.
And as soon as the sun goes down on all this, it's time to party
once more. You certainly won't have too much spare time on your
hands...
