1. Barcelona, a
dream come true
Barcelona was created by 5000 before
Crist and over the decades, all generations
and different cultures have left their
monuments and landmarks in town.
Barcelona is located on the northeast of
Spain, facing the Mediterranean sea, with
a mild climate. Its population is 1.557.863
people distributed on a plain between two
mountains: Tibidabo and Montjüic. You
can enjoy good meals, eat and drink local
dishes and wines in many bars and
restaurants in the narrow streets of the
Old Quarter. Don't miss a bull-fight, go for
a walk in the “Rambles”, a spectacle of
flamenco dancing and drink “sangría”. It is
an easy city to discover by bus, taxi, tram
or just walk.

Familia is one
of Gaudi's
most famous
works in
Barcelona. It's
