7 days in Barcelona

This neighbourhood is the medieval oldtown of the city, and it's part of the city center. Its characteristic architecture is what makes it stand out the most, with the Plaza Reial and the Pont del Bisbe for example.

Parc Güell attracts lots of visitors not only because it was designed by famous architect Antoni Gaudí, but also because of its green spaces and views of the skyline of the city. Just below the Parc is Gràcia neighbourhood, area which has its own identity that's enhanced by its narrow streets and cozy squares.

Being one of Gaudí's masterpieces, Sagrada Familia is a must if it's your first time in Barcelona. Its colorful and beautiful details will captivate you for sure. Passeig de Gràcia is one of the most imporant streets of the city, with shops of the most recognized international brands, that are even worth seeing just for window shopping.

This neighbourhood is also part of the oldtown and its old buildings and structures reminds one of the medieval times. The streets are displayed in a layrinthine way and cute designer shops and cozy cafés can be found in every corner.

It's an old fishermen area that still shows traces of it, so it's probably the best neighbourhood to try fish. The ambience is unique: the colorful streets, the beach, people laying under the sun or excercising, everyone's enjoying the day no matter what they're doing.

This two neighbourhoods are two different sides of the city. Raval has an alternative ambience with a curious combination of cultures because of the immigration and hidden gems such as Sant Pau del Camp church. On the other hand, Sant Antoni is trendiest, with cool local bars and restaurants, and one of its highlights is the Sant Antoni Market that has been reopened after 10 years.

Also known as the Magic Mountain, Montjuic will leave you speachless with the amount of parks and green sites it presents, along with the castle, the olimpic ring, the cemetery and the viewpoints. Plaza Espanya is a monumental square from which you can see buildings such as the old bullring, the MNAC museum and the Magic Fountain of Montjuic.

Poble Sec is a neighbourhood located beneath Montjuic hill that has many well-known bars, restaurants, clubs and discos. La Satalia is part of this area and it consists of individual houses that have incredible views and beautiful designs.

A park with a labyrinth in it and the old beautiful streets make Horta a really nice neighbourhood to visit. Turó de la Rovira is a viewpoint that was once an anti-aircraft battery and that's perfect for a picnic while admiring the views of the city. To end the day, Sant Pau is a wonderful modernist building that was refurbished and it's Art Nouveau Site is open for visits.

The Camp Nou is the stadium of Barcelona Football Club. It's one of the biggest stadiums in the world, and you can either assist to a football match or take a tour through the instalations. Sarrià and Sant Gervasi are the wealthy neighbourhoods and former villages that have interesting and beautiful spots to visit, like squares and parks.

Poble Nou is a cool neighbourhood that's still not invaded by tourism. It has a beautiful cemetery, colorful street art, the beach, gardens and cool local life. On the other hand, Glóries has the Agbar Tower, the Mercat dels Encants and bars where you can rock the night out.
