If culture and architecture is your thing, you can’t beat a walking tour around the Basilica of the Sagrada Familia, built in 1882. Once you’ve explored the fantastic interior and seen the majestic views from the bell towers, you can head back downstairs for a spot of lunch and shopping in the fashionable Eixample district.

In the heart of Barcelona is the iconic Gothic Quarter (Barri Gotic), with a vibrant blend of ancient Roman architecture and artifacts and modern-day culture of artisan shops and authentic culinary experiences. Walk through the quaint terraces and enjoy many small bars, boutique stands, and local musicians late into the night.
