Transformed from obscure into hip and happening, the 20th century brought with it the resurgence of Barcelona. The city is gilded with reminders of the architectural genius of Gaudi and streets are busy by day and night, replete with anything from bird-sellers to cafés. Welcome to the elaborate fusion of history and culture that is Barcelona.

Barcelona proudly endorses its individuality… and rightly so. Located on the north-eastern part of the Iberian Peninsula, it is the city of summer fiestas and 2-3 hour-long siestas. Whether you prefer to take a night-time stroll through the boulevards of eye-wateringly beautiful La Rambla, tickle your taste buds with modern cuisine, or simply browse through small boutiques, Barcelona will leave a lasting smile on your face.
