About Barcelone

Barcelone marie les édifices de Gaudí et un quartier gothique médiéval, entre plages méditerranéennes et collines vertes, cuisine et nuits animées.

L'œuvre d'Antoni Gaudí façonne l'image de la ville. La Sagrada Família s'élève au-dessus de l'Eixample, la Casa Batlló et la Casa Milà bordent l'élégant passeig de Gràcia, et les terrasses en mosaïque du parc Güell dominent les toits. Le quartier gothique conserve sa cathédrale, ses ruelles étroites et ses places cachées, et El Born ajoute le musée Picasso et l'élancée église Santa Maria del Mar.

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