Whether you love Gaudi or not, this city has a vibe! It has cortado, Jamón ibérico, tapa’s, cava, wine and tons of atmosphere!
In Europe we know Art Nouveau, in Barcelona they call that movement ‘Catalan modernista architecture.’ One of the most famous examples, and a World Heritage Site, is the immense Sagrada Família. Construction started in 1882 and completion is planned for 2016.
Barri Gòtic is the center of the oldest part of Barcelona with plenty of narrow and cozy alleys. Some of them will guide you to Plaça Reial which probably is one of the most attractive squares to visit.
