Things To Do In Barcelona
Top Barcelona Attractions
Barcelona. What can we say. We love it here. The Spanish are wonderfully kind and friendly people. Barcelona offers incredible food be it at a little tapas bar or a Michelin starred restaurant. Then there are the sights and attractions and architecture. One of Barcelona’s most famous ‘children’, the late, world-renowned Architect, Antoni Gaudi, is responsible for some of Barcelona’s most popular and most famous tourist attractions, including, likely the most famous of all, Sagrada Familia (his still unfinished masterpiece) which takes pride of place in the Barcelona skyline and is probably one of the most famous buildings in Barcelona. Gaudi was also responsible for Park Guell though as well and other properties that include Casa Batllo, Casa Mila (La Pedrera) and Casa Vicens which was actually Gaudi’s first masterpiece! As you can see, Gaudi still has a significant influence in Barcelona attraction and tourism pulling hundreds of thousands of visitors each year to view his incredible work.
Barcelona is also home to Camp Nou and FC Barcelona and again, welcomes tens of thousands of visitors each year with its basic stadium tour.
