Trip by Skyscanner's Barcelona City Guide offers the best personalized guide to Barcelona. The beautiful Mediterranean city of Barcelona is often thought of as a hybrid between the more traditional Spanish peninsula and northern Europe, making Barcelona one of the most unique destinations worldwide. Even the distinctive language spoken here, Catalan, separates Barcelona from other Spanish cities. As it is a combination of old-Europe and the hustle and bustle of a modern metropolis, Barcelona offers travelers of any budget plenty of things to do. Some of the main attractions in Barcelona are products of one man – Antoni Gaudi, a modernist architect and designer of the distinct La Pedrera, the beautiful Parc Guell, and the famously incomplete Sagrada Familia cathedral, which has been under construction for 128 years. If it’s sunny, the Mediterranean beaches are always options for vacationers. Once the sun goes down, the cuisine in Barcelona is simply exquisite, as chefs here add new twists to traditional Spanish fare to create a taste all its own. Nightlife is also extraordinary, with multi-story clubs highlighting the options. For accommodation, Barcelona offers a wide selection, ranging from hostels to high-end hotels. In Barcelona, the city where new ideas are required to succeed, there is never a shortage of activities for vacationers.
