The City

Barcelona is an extremely cosmopolitan city with a population of about 1,5 million people. The Spanish center of fashion, architecture, food, music and style, it is located by the Mediterranean Sea and it is the heart of the autonomous region of Cataluña, one of the richest and more modern areas of Spain.

With a population known for its dynamic and eccentric, individualist spirit, the city is a multicultural European metropolis that rejoices in its diversity. Barcelona has played a vital role in the economic development of Spain and its total production is about 20% of the total production in the country. It was host of the unforgettable Olympic Games in 1992.

Barcelona combines old and modern with a marvellous result. The city is full of places of medieval and modern interest such as: "El Barrio Gótico", "Las Ramblas", "La Plaza de Catalunya", "The Olympic port", "Picasso Museum," the "Miró Foundation" and the various architectural works of Antonio Gaudí such as "La Sagrada Famíla" and "La Pedrera."

Visitors to this unforgettable city will also be able to experience its white beaches, which contribute to Barcelona's being one of the most visited cities in Spain.

Barcelona, more than just a single city, is really a collection of multi-faceted and diverse cities. The visitor unfamiliar with its history might be surprised that such a modern and enterprising city preserves its historic Gothic center almost intact, or by the curious contrast between the maze of narrow streets and the grid-like layout of the Eixample, the urban planning "Enlargement" project of the end of the 19th century.
