Hola, barcelona

Impressive architecture and hip restaurants meet a sunny Spanish climate and beautiful beaches. This has transformed Barcelona, in just a few decades, from a rough port city into one of Europe's — if not the world's — premier destinations. Stroll along La Rambla and Passeig de Gràcia, admire Gaudí's masterpieces, visit the colourful Market of La Boqueria, lose yourself in the Gothic Quarter, bask in the sun at Barceloneta beach, and discover some of the city's vibrant late-night haunts while you're at it.

Magic Fountain of Montjuïc

Montjuїc, the so-called mountain of the Jews, has an elevation of 173 metres, and it is higher than any other building in the city. The stairs of Palau Nacional face west towards Fontana Magica (Magic Fountain), which is the main feature of the collection of waterfalls and ponds on Avinguda Maria Cristina. Built in 1929 for the Universal Exposition, the Magic Fountain of Montjuïc is a popular attraction in Barcelona, attracting both visitors and locals who come here to watch the magical show of jets of water blasting into the sky while dancing to the rhythm of lights and music.

Barcelona Zoo

In the beautiful Parc de la Ciutadella, you'll find this well-maintained zoo with over 7,000 animals representing 400 different species. Spend a perfect day here with your family and see up close lions, leopards, hippopotami, red pandas, and gorillas – just to mention a few.

El Born Cultural & Memorial Centre

11 September 1714 marks a crucial chapter in the history of Catalonia: the fierce siege of the Bourbonic troops of King Philip V, which ended in the capitulation of Barcelona and the loss of Catalan liberties. El Born Cultural Centre shows the vivacious, dynamic Barcelona of 1700 and the events of 1714 in the context of the War of the Spanish Succession. The archaeological site also contains the remains of the neighbourhood demolished by King Philip V of Spain.

Horta's Labyrinth Park

Designed in 1792, this park surrounds Torre Soberana, a 14th-century country house redecorated in the Arabesque style. Wander the garden's lavish maze and romantic gardens to discover sculptures of mythological figures and a hidden waterfall.
