Barcelona Weekend
I have already been to Barcelona but it is easily one of my favourite places in Europe. It has everything...city life, great food and drinks, relaxed atmosphere, shopping, and beaches.
And this time around I loved it even more. There were no touristy sites, museums, or other attractions on the agenda. Just a great weekend away, enjoying Barcelona's great lifestyle (the best thing Barcelona has on offer).
What made it better was the fact that the trip was arranged by my work as a special award so there was no planning for me to do.
Here is how we spent the weekend and my recommendations of the top things to do in Barcelona:
1. Tour the Mercat de la Boqueria whilst gorging ourselves on jamon iberico,
2. Walk along the beaches,
3. Shop along the Passeig de Gracia,
4. Will away the afternoons with tapas, cava (Barcelona's version of champagne) and cocktails in the fantastic bars lining the Riberia and the Gotic districts, and
5. Top the nights off at some fantastic restaurants.
