Discovering the city

Once in the city, if you love comfort, you can take from the central Plaza Catalunya one of the many tourist buses that surround the entire area, which will allow you to admire with great audio guide the major attractions, such as Arc de Triomf, the lush Parc de la Ciutadella, the Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau, from the Barceloneta beaches to the highest point of the city, the Tibidabo.

You can enjoy pleasant walks along the famous “Ramblas” , characterized by small markets, artists of various kinds and nurseries that color the streets with rare varieties of plants and bouquets of flowers; go into the meanders of the Gothic Quarter, where you will be totally enraptured by the charm of the most hidden streets and the emblem of Catalan Gothic architecture,  the magnificent Santa María del Mar basilica and the impetuous cathedral.

An immersion in the most hidden meanders

You can immerse yourself in typical Catalan customs by visiting the Gracia district, or in the Raval folklore, a multi-ethnic village full of cultural contaminations of all kinds and spicy scents. Not just folklore but also a lot of luxury for those who like to indulge in a romantic dinner full of pomp, by candlelight with their own half wearing an elegant formal dress.

The suggestiveness of local architecture

During your romantic honeymoon, you can not miss a tour of the architectural works of the main exponent of Catalan modernism, the famous Antoni Gaudì. Author of the extraordinary Sagrada Familia, he proposes in his works a prodigious mix of innovation and tradition through buildings of sophisticated beauty, just think of Casa Batllò, La Pedrera or Park Guell, which seems to be a truly enchanted place.

Recurrent in his works is the ornamental technique “trencadis”, which provides for the application of mosaics with ceramic fragments. In fact, there are numerous shops in the city that offer their customers furnishing accessories that recall their style; if you already know this technique and you’re very passionate about it right now you’re thinking of proposing it again in original wedding favors giving to your guests.

For shopping lovers

If you plan to shop, Barcelona will offer you many local craft shops in every corner, but also luxury shopping on Passeig de Gracia, a reference point for the best brands of clothing and elegant shoes. Within walking distance of Plaza Catalunya is Portal del Àngel, another very thriving aerial for the commerce of Barcelona.

Do not forget to visit the many food markets, especially the Boqueria, and bring home the local gastronomy: cheeses and famous “embutidos” are the top products of the range known and appreciated all over the world.

A tour in the medieval part and in the Costa Brava

Catalonia is a diverse land, home to enchanting picturesque villages, high peaks, Mediterranean landscapes, and a clear blue sea!
