Places to visit in Barcelona
Barcelona: a metropolis with an individual character. The streets are populated by a melting pot of cultures that come from all over the world. But it's the Catalan identity ('Barça is not Spain, Barça is Catalonia!') that dominates all else. Anyone who strikes up a conversation with a true Barcelonian will quickly discover that the love runs deep. The Catalans would love to establish an independent city-state, separate from mother country Spain. That love is also reflected when it comes to football. FC Barcelona is the pride of both young and old. Antoni Gaudí was a Catalan architect who remains a local hero to this day. Gaudí left behind several remarkable buildings, such as Parc Guëll and his main work, the church of the Sagrada Família. He is renowned for his use of organic forms and for incorporating cheap, simple residual materials (brick, ceramics, glass).
Discover Barcelona
Cituat Vella (the old town) is easy to explore on foot. Lively squares, bars and restaurants are everywhere you look. The old town is bordered by La Rambla, a wide, tree-lined pedestrian street that extends for more 1.2 kilometres. Whatever the time of day, it's always busy with tourists, street vendors and artists. La Rambla is, in a way, synonymous with Barcelona: dynamic, individualistic and intriguing. A must-see for everyone.
