It's no secret to my loved ones that I'm slightly obsessed with Spain. From the people, to the culture, to my adventures, España is truly a jewel. since it's impossible to sum up all of spain's glory in one piece, this article is about one of my favorite cities in spain: barcelona. a must do for any lover of travel. located in the catalonia region, barcelona is known as the cosmopolitan capital of spain. the people of the catalonia region have a deep sense of pride in their roots and still speak catalan to this day. although BARCELona is very much a cosmopolitan city, it was founded as a roman city in the middle ages, therefore, saturated in culture. The following are some of my absolute must do's and tips while visiting barcelona!
Pieces from the last two can be marveled at all throughout the streets of barcelona for free! Gaudi is known for his buildings. basilica sagrada familia, casa mila, and park guell are just a few of the places you can admire his ARCHITECTURAL designs. THE FRIEZES ALONG THE FRONT OF THE COL-LEGI D'ARQUITECTES, PICASSO'S ONLY OUTDOOR ARTWORK, IS LOCATED IN PLACA NOVA (PLAZA NOVA EST. 1358). presently, the plaza is filled with trendy clothing stores, confectioneries, and cafes nestled into the historic backdrop. also, the friezes are LITERALLY ACROSS FROM THE RUINS OF a TOWERING ANCIENT ROMAN GATE. this gate is the entry to one of my favorite places in the entire world: Barri Gotic (the gothic quarter). although some aspects of the architecture were created in the early part of the 20th century simply to attract TOURISM, this location is a history lovers disneyland. the columns from the temple of augustus built during the imperial period, the 18th century basilica de la merced, Placa reial (royal plaza), and many more sites will keep you entertained for hours.
spain in known for its PAELLAS and tapas. neither fail to live up to their expectations, especially if you know where you're going. there are two restaurants i visit every time i'm in barcelona.
2. creps al born: passeig del born 12, barcelona, 08003 a top notch crepe and cocktail bar. what else does a person need?? creps al born is in walking distance of the gothic quarter and definitely worth visiting. The bartenders don't just create yummy drinks, they create art!! they also swing the lamps hanging from the CEILING every time someone tips. awesome ambience for people in the mood to have a little fun! these are just two of my favorites places to indulge my taste buds but fun fact, i have never had a meal in barcelona that i didn't like.
