About the city
Barcelona is the largest city in Catalonia and one of the most visited capitals in Europe. Medieval Gothic quarters, Antoni Gaudí's modernist masterpieces and a vibrant Mediterranean waterfront sit side by side.
The city is alive year-round: Barceloneta beaches, Gràcia cafes, Montjuïc concerts and the iconic Camp Nou football arena.
