Barcelona and related destinations
Between the Gothic Quarter's labyrinthine streets and Gaudí's fantastical architecture, this city feels like walking through someone's magnificent dream. La Sagrada Familia's soaring spires continue their century-long construction while Park Güell's mosaic benches offer the city's best views. La Rambla pulses with street performers and flower stalls leading to the Mediterranean, where Barceloneta Beach fills with sunbathers and impromptu volleyball matches. The Maritime Museum occupies medieval shipyards worth visiting even if boats aren't your passion. For the perfect evening, join locals in the ritual of tapas hopping through El Born's narrow streets, where tiny bars serve patatas bravas and vermouth with equal reverence.
