| View of Barcelona from the cable cars to Montjuic |
Barcelona is in the North East of Spain and has 13km of Mediterranean coastline. Barcelona's population is just over 1.5 million.
Barcelona has 53 museums and galleries, 6 beaches, 61 parks and gardens and over 2,300 restaurants.
I went to Barcelona with a friend for 3 nights and 4 days at the end of May 2004. This was a nice time of year to visit as the weather was hot and sunny, but not overbearing.
We stayed in a 2 bedroom flat in the Raval area, about 10 minutes walk from the Ramblas.
I fell in love with Barcelona and it's beautiful architecture, there is so much to see and could have stayed for longer, however, you can get to see a lot in a day as it is not that big and is easy to get around. |
