Tourist Guide Barcelona:

Barcelona is a modern and cosmopolitan city. Located in a privileged position on the coast of the Iberian peninsula, it is the second largest city in Spain.

This city enjoys a prime location, bathed by the sea, between the Mediterranean Sea and Europe. Today almost 4.5 million people live in the Barcelona metropolitan area.

Barcelona is tipically a Mediterranean city, not only for its geographic location, but also above all because of its old history and cultural influences. There are two official languages spoken in Barcelona: “Catalan”, generally spoken in all of Catalonia, and “Castillian Spanish”.

Barcelona is located along the Mediterranean coast and it is 160 Km. south of the Pyreenes mountain range. The city is located on an altitude of 4 mt. above sea level.

The area around Barcelona has a wealth of attractions including the laid back resort towns of the Costa Brava north of Barcelona towards the French border.

You can have spectacular views over the city and the coast line from the mountain of Tibidabo (512 metres in altitude) is, the highest point of the Collserola hills, rising between the passes of Vallvidrera and Serola and it amusement park.

Barcelona is certainly economically most active city in Spain. The city has an old history, and there are monuments of Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance and earlier periods.
Is also a city of much Modernist architecture: the most popular spanish architect being the former resident Antonì Gaudì.

Gaudì was one of the most important modernist style architects worldwide. Many of his most extraordinary works are to be found in Barcelona.

Barcelona is, one of the nicest city in the world, is a dynamic and stylish city. In this city you can have so much to see and do.
There are a lot of interesting museums, art galleries, (with significant collections by Picasso and Miró), theatres, and restaurant where you can taste typical spanish dishes.

The city offers some of the trendiest nightclubs and discos; there are six beaches in Barcelona, with 4,2 Km.of length.. They have all the facilities and services necessary for people to enjoy a pleasant and safe day at the beach.
