Barcelona City Guide made by myself
About BCN (most known as Barcelona) xD here there are some places you must go:
The typicall ones:
- Park Güell (the one i told you last night) : entry for free
- Sagrada Familia : entry paying if you wanna visit the towels if not, no. (ask for be inside the temple only xD) is full always
- Las Ramblas (be carefull there with your bags is often full of foreigners and people tries to stole)
- Paseo de Gracia and La Pedrera: entry paying but you will see the modernism art in all it's splandor, a movement created in barcelona at the beggining of the XX century.
- La Plaza Reial with is in the ramblas ask for it (good place also to go and have a drink in the night)
- Plaça de Sant Jaume and the Gothic part of the city. When the city goverment & the Generalitat are and the ancient part of the city.
- The magic fontain in Montjuïc, it depends on the night it usually goes or not. I guess in April it'll do it. Ask for it, is free and you've water, colours and music. I like it.
- El Palau de la Musica, next to the centrum is an amazing building so cute and if you can go in please do it, i love it. Looks strange but also fantastic. Modernism again xD.
- El Bosc de les Fades is a bar in the very end of las Ramblas, ask for it. Maybe you don't wanna go and drink, just visit it, is so curious.
- Gracia, for sure! Gracia streets are full of life even been so small, as it has been a village near to Barcelona and not part of the city as now. Go there also at night to have some drinks, every bar is a good one. Even you can ask for "El cafe del teatreneu" to have some dinner at cheap price ( 4 euros every dish), and maybe after you can have some cocktails around there.
- If you wanna go and dance i recomend you "Les enfants" next to las ramblas wich is pretty nice and have good music, is expensive like 10-12 euros included the first consumition. You can go to Razzmatazz if you feel but is far and there are huge lines to go in and pay 15 to 18 euros (yes, first consumition included but...anyway...!!!)
- Next to the Plaza Reial is full of cheap bars or taverns.
- Maybe you wanna something much cultural and you ca go to the Liceo but i guess is really expensive to get in.
- You can go and visit the FC Barcelona stadium wich is the biggest in Europe with 98.000 people allowed to sit there, and the 2nd one in the world (talking about soccer).
- You can go to the tibidabo mountain and have a nice perspective of all the city, and there's a blue tram so old and nice and also an elevator also old and nice to go there on top of the mountain.
- Also the Eixample with is curious to see (you'll be there when you visit the sagrada familia)
- The cathedral close to the gothic part.
- The Ovella Negra Tavern is so old fashion and you must visit it doesn't mind if you take a drink or not. Is close to the centrum so if you wanna drink go early !!
Okay, places to go and eat!
-is full of mcdonald's but pleease, don't do it!
- You can go if you're in Gracia to the one i told you before, el cafe del teatreneu wich is really cheap.
- If you're in the gothic part there's an italian place in a small street between it and Via Laietana with a red label wich i love a lot called La Locanda (aprox 10 euros per person) and in the next street a real good mexican called "la rosa negra".
- And please ask for tipicall dishes but be carefull!!! don't do it in the touristic places! Paella is not that they'll sell to you there. For a good one you can go to the "Paseo Maritimo" near to the beach but it'll be expensive I guess.
Things to try!
- Pa amb tomaquet
- Tortilla de patatas (spanish omelet)
- Paella
- Tapas (chipirones, calamares, tortilla, jamon,bacalao, etc....=
- Jamon!
- Sangria (real one xD)
- Fuet (you can buy it at the supermarket)
- Chupa Chups? xDD
- Real Spanish Wine, you can found it at the supermarket too.
- Sangre de Heavy and Leche de Pantera in some taverns close to the centrum like The Agüelo.
You can also take a pass for the Turistic Buses of the city, you pay some but you can use them all day long any times you want and they have stops around the important places.
And here a link:
t.In.Barcelona.html (don't do points 9 and 10).
What else can I say?
Maybe you can also go to the beach in april so bring your bikini with you! :D
Hope it helps and if i remember more i'll let you know! ENJOY IT!
