The city has wonderful monuments, art galleries, museums and restaurants that will water your mouth before you even order anything. There are wonderful natural sites here as well as historic grounds that will leave you yearning for more.

L’Eixample suburb
Overpopulation in Barcelona’s Old Town saw the city’s expansion towards the Place Catalunya on the North. This suburb was given the name L’Eixample which means “The Extension” and it was adorned with very beautiful architectural designed buildings. The work was done by Art Nouveau architects and has got something to offer the desiring eyes.

The suburb hosts the church Sagrada Familia which is full of controversies and is still unfinished because its architect died suddenly. This serves as a monument for the architect Antoni Gaudi who died in 1962. The monument has attracted a lot of visitors over the years and remains the city’s best in terms of visitations made here.

There are also districts that came about with the Barcelona’s expansion on the further Northern area. The districts include Les Corts, Sarris, Horta-Guinardo and Gracia.

Barcelona’s seaside
For those who have a passion for sailing and windsurfing, you can do this on the Mediterranean mild climate and cools seas of Barcelona. Olympic Port has small boats which leave the harbor to take visitors sightseeing. You will be able to see the city’s coastline and waterfront which is quite a magnificent view.

There are seafood restaurants at Barceloneta which is the city’s fishing district. Olympic Port also has outdoor terraces offering relaxation, bars, shops, cinemas and discos.

It is also wonderful to visit Costa Brava for a peaceful experience away from the crowd since it has deserted coves just for that peaceful moment.

There is a very beautiful cultural center called Sant Adria de Besos – El Forum which was constructed for the purpose of hosing Forum de Les Cultures. It was remodeled in 2004 for this reason and it hosts numerous events. Thousands of foreigners are attracted by the events which showcase cultural values of Spain. This is definitely worth the check.
