About Barcelona

Barcelona sætter Gaudís fantasifulde bygninger og et gotisk kvarter mellem middelhavsstrande og grønne bakker, med mad og natteliv i samme klasse.

Antoni Gaudís værker definerer byens image. Sagrada Família rejser sig over Eixample, Casa Batlló og Casa Milà kantes af den elegante Passeig de Gràcia, og Park Güells mosaikterrasser kigger ud over tagene. Det Gotiske Kvarter har bevaret sin katedral, smalle stræder og skjulte pladser, og El Born tilføjer Picasso-museet og den høje kirke Santa Maria del Mar.

Top-ranked sights in Barcelona: Sagrada Família, Montserrat Mountain, Gothic Quarter (Barri Gòtic).
