(More) I've created this guide thinking how I'd like to discover Barcelona myself. I know I would like to see all its amazing highlights but I also know that those areas tend to be overcrowded and that I would need to escape from time to time to relax and get to feel a little bit the local side of the city. Then, I would need advice from someone like me ;) (believe me, few people has explored its wine bars, tapas bars and hidden corners like I have been doing those last years) to find local restaurants and bars to avoid the huge number of tourist traps where many tourists end up seating. If you follow my routes and advices I'm sure you'll fall in love with city. Of course, don't hesitate in writing me if you have doubts while you read it. Enjoy my 4-days guide of Barcelona!! (Less)

Imagine you've been previously tasting wines and tapas in some amazing old wine bars. Imagine a lively bohemian neighborhood with a laid-back village vibe.
