      Why visit Barcelona?

      There aren't many cities which combine as much to do and see as Barcelona. There's the spectacular cathedral, an Olympic village, a harbour, old quarter and a beach backed by tapas bars.

      When should you plan your visit to Barcelona?

      There are special events going on throughout the year:

      • The 6th of January see the most important Christmas event in Spain - celebrating the Three Wise Men the festival is called Dia de los Reyes.
      • In February there's a celebration just before Lent called Carnival with parades, costumes and dancing.
      • There's a huge street party in August called Gràcia, and September 11th is Catalonia's Independence Day when special events are held all around the region.

      The city is a great destination all year round, but the peak time to visit is spring and summer when the weather is at its best.

      Barcelona is a heaven for foodies

      The people of Barcelona flavour their dishes with plenty of herbs, garlic and onion. A local favourite is Pan Tomaca con Jamón Serrano which is bread flavoured with garlic, olive oil and tomato with thinly-sliced Serrano ham layered on top. For dessert try Crema Catalana which is similar to cream brûlée.
