Barcelona
Barcelona is known throughout the world as a cultural
city, with an important heritage and a permanent and exciting range
of activities on offer.
It is a city of renowned architectural interest, from its Roman
walls to recent constructions like the “torre Agbar”, a 142
m high building designed by Jean Nouvel. The Gothic Quarter invites
the traveller to stroll down its narrow alleyways, and visit its
churches (the Cathedral, Santa Maria del Pi and Santa Maria del Mar)
and civil buildings. The “Passeig de Gràcia” and
the “Rambla Catalunya” are the main thoroughfares in
the “Eixample”, the district that was planned in the
19th century to enlarge the old city area, containing several works
of Antoni Gaudi. Barcelona affords countless possibilities for recreation.
Over 40 museums: monographic art collections such as the “Museu
Picasso”, the “Fundació Joan Miró” and
the “Fundació Antoni Tàpies”.
