Barcelona is located on the northeast coast of the Iberian Peninsula and is the capital of the Catalonia region of Spain. It boasts of splendid architecture that will surely be a feast for the eyes of cruise passengers. The streets of Barcelona are filled with the signature works of famous architects who include Antoni Gaudi, Josep Puig I Cadafalch and Lluis Domènech i Montaner.
Not only does this place exude with the charms of Gothic architecture, it also boasts a fabulous array of signature Spanish cuisine that can give you an unforgettable dining experience. From street fare to fine dining, there is something to match your budget while tantalizing your taste buds. A must try is the Spanish tapas, snacks that are served at any local bar.
Barcelona has a wonderful climate that is conducive for roaming to look for novelty items and trinkets readily available in the shops to be found on the winding streets almost bursting with a charged atmosphere.
Indeed, this is a place that offers a variety of things to do, and what makes it more attractive is its accessibility not only from the port but also from the air.
If you’re planning to spend your holiday in Spain, and you’re from outside the EU, please keep in mind that you will probably need a tourist visa.
