Barcelona is one of the biggest cities in Spain. It is within the Catalonian part of Spain, and most people that live in Barcelona almost see Catalonia as a separate country (but I’ll save that for another post). It is a very cultural town so if you are into city culture you will really enjoy almost every square foot of Barcelona.
Here is a list of the top 7 things to do while taking a
trip to Barcelona, Spain.
La Pedrera
Made by Gaudi (the famous artist, who’s work is all over Barcelona), La Pedrera is a building in the Eixample district of Barcelona. La Pedrera’s real name is Casa Mila but most people know it as La Pedrera. La Pedrera means ‘The Quarry’. It was built between 1905-1910 (although was considered finished in 1912). If you like architecture you should check it out!
Museu Picasso
I will just assume you have heard of Picasso. He has a museum all about his work, his rise to fame and a large collection of his art. The museum is set in a medieval palace. It is very impressive.
Barcelona Cathedral
The Barcelona cathedral – also known properly as ‘Cathedral of the Holy Cross and Saint Eulalia’ – is a very big and very impressive building that was built between the 13th and 15th centuries. You will probably recognize the building from films as it has appeared in many.
La Rambla
La Rambla is the main shopping district. One word of caution here – be careful of pickpockets. They thrive here and their prey are the tourists. You have to be really on your guard throughout Barcelona, but especially so in La Rambla.
Parc de la Ciutadella
This is a park and is Barcelonas largest one. It is a very beautiful one and definitely worth a visit to check it out
Barceloneta Beach
Barceloneta Beach and the other main ones in Barcelona cannot be missed if you are visiting Barcelona in the summer. They are very popular, very hot, and very relaxing. Don’t miss the beaches if you are on a summer trip to Barcelona!
Gran Teatre del Liceu
If you like opera, then Gran Teatre del Liceu is one of the greatest opera houses out there. Do not miss a chance to hear the great sounds of Gran Teatre del Liceu if you are in Spain
we will visit barcelona next winter. booyah!
we are going to visit barcelona this coming winter.
day, dusk, evening?
or casa mila
And holiday to a brain-dead armchair football fan who only offer the teams within the 5 best from the premier league since you think it is the awesome factor to complete despite the fact that you most likely live nowhere near Liverpool or Manchester as well as London for your matter, i am a West Brom SUPPORTER!! not really a fan there is a large difference! & i’ve not skipped a match home or away in 7 1/24 months! the number of individuals Toolbox,Liverpool,or Guy Utd fans know that does not many i wager.Start asking proper football questions for something new i quickly can begin giving proper solutions!!!.And incidentally West Brom beat boring Toolbox and so i reckon that means we are much better than Barcelona.
Fabiola does
”What did Cristiano Ronaldo do legitimate Madrid last season? He managed to get to round 16 with Real Madrid. Obtained 26 goals (La Liga) 7 goals (Champions League) and so forth…Finished in second place with 96 points behind FC Barcelona. The only real factor he did legitimate Madrid was making promises, that they had not accomplished….Must I provide him credits for your??”
My real question is why did Diego Forlan win probably the most Valuable Player within the WC when his team finished 4th?
Messi and Ronaldo were top scorers from the CL this past year but because they did not win it so each of their achievements are meaningless…. they may as well not really performed…. LOOL…
Apparently if you do not win a trophy then that individual didn’t do anything for that club….
Would you share exactly the same point of view of Fabiola?….
