Visit Barcelona
Barcelona, a dynamic and welcoming city
Interested in sport?
The city is famous for its sporting tradition, and not just because of the 1992 Olympic Games. Don’t miss out on the chance to watch a live football match involving FC Barcelona or RCD Espanyol or to attend other sporting events (basketball, handball, tennis, athletics, motor sports, etc.).
Getaways
The climate of Barcelona is Mediterranean, with mild winters and warm summers. The city has more than four kilometres of beaches with facilities and it lies very close to the Costa Brava, Sitges, the Costa Dorada and the ski resorts of the Pyrenees.
Shopping
International firms, modern designer boutiques and traditional and classical establishments are part of Barcelona’s rich shopping experience. You can go shopping in the main commercial hubs and shopping centres and discover the municipal markets, antique shops and art galleries.
Culture
Museums devoted to Pablo Picasso, Joan Miró and Antoni Tàpies, the finest collection of Romanesque art in the world, contemporary art exhibitions, modernist routes, Gaudí’s Sagrada Familia church, opera and ballet at the Liceu, one of the great international theatres… Barcelona’s cultural activities are diverse and exciting.
Where to eat
Gastronomy constitutes one of the great attractions of Barcelona, due to the variety and quality of Catalan, Mediterranean and market-based cuisine and the new creative ideas of internationally renowned chefs. 30 restaurants in Barcelona have been awarded Michelin stars.
Where to have fun
Everybody is sure to enjoy themselves. Discovering the city by day is a wonderful adventure and enjoying it at night is an exciting experience, as a result of the wide array of pubs and bars with electronic music, jazz, rock, Latin music and flamenco.
