Barcelona is one of the most popular city break destinations in Europe and more and more people are now moving there permanently. Visitor numbers have doubled since the 1992 Olympics.

It is a great Cosmopolitan City with lots to do- very compact and easy to get round, it has fantastic shops, museums, art, food and people, to name but a few. There really is something for everyone.
Walking around the city is a great way to take in the culture, sights and sounds. You can also travel by the well organised ''Metro'', by Tourist Bus or even take the cable car to the summit of Montjuic, where you will enjoy breathtaking views......
You are spoilt for choice with Museums - You can enjoy the works of Dali, Picasso and Miro, to name but a few.
Gaudi''s work''s can be seen across Barcelona, and include the ''La Sagrada Familia'', which is a must see.
Another spectacle not to be missed is the ''Camp Nou'' football stadium, which is one of the World''s largest. Home to ''Barca'', (Barcelona football club), there is also a museum of interest inside.
Great for people watching, eating and drinking, is the famous Las Ramblas. If you are looking for nightlife, you will not be disappointed - it has a late start here, though, from 10pm things start to get going, and you can party all through the night. Try the area''s of ''Olympic Port'', ''La Ribera'' and the Bohemian ''El Raval''
