Travel to barcelona, Spain

How it look life in Barcelona ?

Barcelona is one of the most interesting cities in Europe. During sightseeing we can see a lot of styles and époques, it has always a lot of tourists, but we were there in May, then it wasn’t so crowded and The weather was perfect. I can say that it’s a safe city, but in crowded places you must careful to nobody steal your stuff ( phone, camera … etc)

The best idea to see and enjoy the beauty of Barcelona and to visit so many places and so many street artists, is to not use transport and walk around this huge city, we had 3 days in Barcelona and I can advise to you to make a plan to not waste your time and you must know that in some popular places you must wait in a long line to get your turn to have the ticket.

Some Street Artists in Barcelona

Food and drinks :
Normally people like to eat in restaurants when they are travelling, so in Barcelona, they are so many on the La Rambla street, but if you want to try traditional food, you must search some restaurants in the old part of the city, they are easy to recognize. There are so many kinds of traditional foods, I can advise you some : Paella, Tapas, Boquerones, Bacalao fish, Brocheta de carne.

Transport :

Metro and bus connections are really good, so we didn’t have problems to move around the city when it was necessary and it is possible to buy single, daily or ticket for a few days, but metro lines don’t work during the night, so if you have a night flight you must consider another kind of transport.

How much cost to me 3 days in Barcelone :

Including the flight tickets, accommodation, food and drinks, touristic places tickets and transport, I spend more or less 200 – 250 euros during my travel to Barcelona

Places I visited :
Barcelona has a lot of places to visit, a lot of museums and so many parks, it’s not possible to see everything during few days. So if you want to visit Barcelona you must spend in this city more or less one week. Unfortunately, we had just 3 days.
But before our trip we have made a plan to visit a part of the city per day to see the most important places, I must tell you to be careful on the street to nobody can steal your things (phone, wallet, camera) and also in some restaurants you must be careful with the price and the quality of what you are eating.
In Barcelona i visited a lot of amazing places, but for me the best was Sagrada Família. This huge cathedral is amazing. On the inside of it, we can feel how important is this place. Its architecture is so beautiful.
