Experience Spain's second largest city which is famous for its tradition, culture and history. La Rambla is a must, with its promenade stretching from the centre of the city to the waterfront. Small, attractive beaches allow sunbathers to soak up the sun or provide watersports for the more energetic. It is home to the characteristic and popular Boqueria meat and fish market. A panoramic view of Barcelona can be enjoyed from the Military Museum at Montjuic, surrounded by the Olympic Quarter. Montjuic has become a popular night spot well as having museums, parks and gardens. For a stroll, make sure you choose the Parc de la Ciutedella - a romantic garden bordered by tree-lined paths and host to Barcelona's zoo.

The Picasso Museum is for art lovers. It has collections of paintings, drawings and sketches from the early years of Pablo Picasso's life. Shopping in Barcelona is also fun with its flea markets, department stores, and gift shops.

Barcelona is famous as the home of Gaudi's unique architecture. And, on a short break to Barcelona, no visitor should miss the incredible Sagrada Familia, a masterpiece of modern architecture.

You'll also find a vast array of bars, cafés, clubs and discos providing music and fun for all tastes.

To join in the celebrations, you should visit Barcelona in September when the festival of La Merce, patroness of Barcelona, is held - four days of non-stop music, dancing, fireworks, bullfights, and parades.

For a traditional taste of Barcelona, visit Bari Gotic, the 500 year old Gothic Quarter - a maze of narrow streets around the cathedral, lined by magnificent houses.

The 1992 Olympic Games provided for the expansion and refurbishment of Barcelona El Prat airport, and there are plans for adding another runway as flights to the city have increased at breathtaking rates since 1992.
