Having Fun In Barcelona
It is impossible not to love Barcelona; it is a lovely city with a lot of fun opportunities for tourists like sightseeing, restaurants, terraces, bars, shops and a rich cultural, architectural and historical heritage. The word ‘’boredom’’ does not exist in Barcelona, so visit it because I am sure that you will love it!
The beaches and the festivals
The 5 kilometers of beaches in Barcelona will make you fall in love with the delicate sands and the crystal clear water. All along the beaches you are welcomed by exquisite restaurants that serve the local, traditional dishes while the bars offer good drinks. The festivals represent one of the main attractions in Barcelona and some are even one week long.
La Merce which takes place in September is the most famous one; it is an exciting festival that connects you with the culture, traditions and customs of the country so it would be a good idea to plan your holiday according to this festival.
Montjuic and Parc de Ciutadella
It is a ‘’must’’ to take the cable car that leads you to Montjuic because it is the place that offers you spectacular views of Barcelona. This is the place where the 1992 Olympic Games were held and an exciting place for all those who love to have visual souvenirs from the cities they visit. Parc de Ciutadella is a lovely place where tourists can relax and it hosts the Barcelona Zoo which children will definitely love.
Park Guell and Barceloneta
The famous Park Guell is the work of the great architect Antoni Gaudi; when you visit the park, make sure you do not miss the double staircase or the room that was meant to play the role of the central market, with its Doric pillars. Barceloneta is a spectacular place in Barcelona, the ideal spot for a perfect traditional meal; choose one of its restaurants and I assure you that you will never regret your choice.
Ways of visiting Barcelona
There are several ways in which a tourist can visit Barcelona; if you are the active type of tourist, do the tour of the city by bike. Those who love adrenaline should go on a helicopter ride which offers them the possibility to see the city from up high; if you are the traditional type, you should know that you have a wide range of bus tours to choose from. Have fun!
