A perfect combination

Me @ Park Guell
There are so many things to see and do here, I think it is a perfect combination of culture, relax and nightlife.

I loved Gaudi houses they are magic.
Catalunyan people are very kind, they care seriously about the tourism. They helped me very much to get to the attractions.

Parc Guell is charming you imagine that you are in a story. Is's magical and it was designed by Gaudi. Other Gaudian construction that you must see is "La Pedrera" (also called Casa Mila) and of course, "La Sagrada Familia" church.

You may go to the beach, it's very close to the city, full of nice people, just take the bus.
I think the name of the beach was "Playa Barceloneta" but not 100% sure so check with a local there. The bad part is that at least that beach is not very good for swimming as it has many stones. But good for taking sunbath, seeing nice people and have fun.
La Sagrada Familia
Barcelona has a major international airport with good connections to main European's cities,a dn linked to Madrid with "Puente Aereo" (Air shuttle), so between Barcelona and the capital you will find flights like every 15 minutes.

Pros:"Very nice city, excellent weather in summer, loved Gaudi's houses"
Cons:"Beware of pickpockets at La Rambla"
In A Nutshell:"A perfect combination for hanging out and seeing cultural and interesting places."
