If you like parties, cultural diversity and an opening to the world, Barcelona is waiting for you. It is doubtlessly one of Spain’s most attractive and cosmopolitan cities. Few cities can boast such a perfect symbiosis between tradition and modernity, Art and History, culture and life.
Surely the capital of Catalonia, with its unequaled cultural and artistic patrimony, will make you dream. Gaudí’s genial work will leave you speechless: the Güell park, the cathedral of the Sagrada Familia, the curious building of La Pedrera.
If Barcelona was for sale, every stone would be worth its weight in gold if only for the city’s privileged setting: sitting on the beach, with cool mountains wrapping its shoulders and surrounded by a motorway which, to the North, connects it with France and to the South, borders the coast.
Moreover it is one of the liveliest cities on the western Mediterranean coast, being in permanent promotion as a big metropolis and a bridge between the Iberian peninsula and the heart of Western Europe.
You have never seen a region with so many “fiestas” and such strongly rooted traditions. The folklore of Catalonia, with its deep Mediterranean roots, will surprise you by its variety and its originality. Young people coming from all over Europe dance the “Sardana” in front of the cathedral before moving on to the discos or the numerous concert halls until the next morning.
A visit to Barcelona is always a present to the senses. Walking through the city you will feel invited to live intensively, to discover surprising modernist buildings, wonderful museums and modern art foundations, imposing Gothic churches, designer bars, breathtaking perspectives.
