Barcelona: The city stay
Barcelona is a city that sparks the imagination with unique architectural designs from Gaudi including Park Güell and the yet-completed La Sagrada Familia. Immerse yourself in Spanish culture as you wind through Las Ramblas en route to the historic and spellbinding Barrio Gottico district—the city’s gothic quarter. Wherever you roam, the charm, cuisine and art of the city will stay with you.
