     Great page on Barcelona Holger. The Arc de Triomf is especially beautiful as is the Plaza Espana. I also enjoy cities where you can easily walk to see the main attractions.

     Great tips! I've save a number of them for my trip next year. Thanks!

     I just come back from warm Spain. You also notice the inflation of Cerveza stock price @ Las Ramblas ;-) Hasta pronto!
