Photos, reviews, descriptions, and links to maps
Barcelona is a true European “pearl” with a rich historical heritage and excellent prospects. The capital of Catalonia was founded in the 3rd century BC by a Carthaginian general, the father of the famous Hannibal. Since then, the city has passed from the Romans to the Visigoths and Moors, and then to the descendants of the Frankish kings. At the same time it constantly developed and later became the capital of the powerful Catalan-Aragonese kingdom.
Barcelona attracts millions of tourists every year. It is a city with magnificent Gothic neighbourhoods, beautiful Catholic churches, immortal works of Gaudi and unique atmosphere of the Mediterranean promenades. The colourful national festivals “La Merce”, “Parade of the Magician Kings”, “Gracia” reveal the local culture in all its glory and allow you to plunge deeper into the traditions.
