My favourite thing about Barcelona is the diversity, it really does have a little bit of everything. Stunning beaches, interesting culture and amazing architecture, sounds pretty perfect to me! You can't go wrong with a trip to Barcelona whatever the occasion

What to do
See a FC Barcelona football game
Spain is a football country and if you're a football fan you'll want to do yourself a favour and head to a game at Camp Nou, one of the worlds most famous football stadiums.
Visit the Sagrada Familia
This a famous unfinished large roman catholic church designed, like much of the other architecture in Barcelona, by Antoni Gaudi. It was worth a visit just to appreciate the sheer size of it!
Spend a few hours at Barceloneta Beach
A trip to Barcelona wouldn't be complete without a trip to the beach, right? It's a great spot to relax, people watch or join in with the beach games.
Where to Eat
Enoteca
A double Michelin star restaurant, only try here if you're willing to splash the cash! It serves contemporary Mediterranean food based upon fresh food. Beware it gets booked out very quickly so that's something to keep in mind.
Bar Celta
A traditional tapas bar, the bright and noisy bar celta has been in industry over 40 years and loved by all. It particularly specialises in dishes from Galicia. Although standard tapas such as patatas brava is served too.
Overall, Barcelona is a great place to visit all year round with a mild climate and plenty to do and see.
