Barcelona is the perfect walking city. Not too hot, not too cold, and full of impressive sights around every corner. Start your day with a morning walk around the old town - exploring all the little nooks and crannies that it has to offer without the throngs of tourists. Stop into the small cafés for a café con leche and a cheeky croissant - because it’s a holiday. Then, it’s up to the Hospital Sant Pau - a renovated hospital designed by Gaudí & co that’s a stone’s throw away from the Sagrada Familia - but a lot leas crowded. Then, after exploring all the mosaic designs, grab a bottle of wine and head straight uphill to los bunquers - an old air gun spot from where you can see the sun set over the city 🌆 #historicculture#café#beautifulsunsets#culturalattractions

Barcelona contains both the authentically historic and the wildly bizarre. From the scenic trails of the colorful Park Güell to the romantic narrow alleys of Barri Gòtic; from the beachside nightclubs to the city's dozens of sacred churches and architectural marvels, this city by the sea seems to attract all types: the adventurer, the couple, the partier, the culture lover – and more – with an almost overwhelming variety of things to do. You could stay for a few days, but chances are you'll need a whole week to explore. In Barcelona, even the beach is bustling, but it's really the cosmopolitan city that gets all the attention. Much of the activity revolves around Las Ramblas, a series of narrow streets and alleys packed with restaurants, nightclubs and a vibrant pedestrian market. But you should also take a tour of Antoni Gaudí's masterpieces; Gaudí is responsible for sites like Casa Milà, Casa Batlló and La Sagrada Familia. You also shouldn't miss out on the eclectic shopping scene and the region's exquisite food and wine. #city #cityoverlook #citytopics #cityvacation #cityneversleeps #village #architecture #tripinspired #tripaway #bestislandtraveltowns#naturalwonders

The aquarium is smaller compared to other main water attractions but its revolving tunnel feature is really one of a kind. They still have a vast colection of species including stung rays, octopuses and sharks!! The entry to the venue is fast as the voucher was already accepted as ticket. Its a must see for families with small children as they have lots of interactive activities for kids. I appreciated the small but very cute penguin showcase. The Barcelona Aquarium was very entertaining. They had a great selection of fish and water creatures. Though, I found it a bit small as compared to orher aquqriums I have been to. But overall, it is my money’s wprth. Best to go on a weekday as it gets really crowded on weekends especially Sundays. #summervacation#urbanexplorer

L’lla Diagonal is the Barcelona’s oldest mall, it was built back in 1993 and since then has been one of the favorites of the local public. The design of the center building is already something you will appreciate: it looks somewhat like a horizontal skyscraper that seems to be lying on its side. It is located right next to the Diagonal Avenue, in the upper part of Barcelona, in between the districts of Les Corts and Sarrià-Sant Gervasi. 😌 #summervacation#hotelstay#urbanexplorer

Maremagnum is located at the very end of a wooden pier of the Port Vell of Barcelona. Its building has a very distinctive and interesting design. Its mirrored entrance will not let you pass by without taking a selfie! The shopping precinct offers numerous shops for fashion, home ware and other kinds of goods. Getting there is the easiest thing: you just walk down Las Ramblas all the way from Plaza Catalunya and follow the crowd through the pier. You will not have a more enjoyable and romantic walk, especially if you do it during the sunset. Here you have the beautiful Rambla de Mar just before reaching the mall. 😘 #summervacation#hotelstay#urbanexplorer
