How to Spend a Weekend in Barcelona, Spain

A gorgeous city brimming with art and culture, Barcelona is an absolute must-visit if you’re traveling to Spain. Located on the sun-kissed northern coast of the country, Barcelona has it all, whatever time of year you’re planning on visiting!

Travel during the summer, and you can enjoy lazy days at the golden sandy beaches, relaxed afternoons sipping cocktails in chic lounges, and lively evenings joining in with local fiestas that never seem to end. If you prefer things a little cooler, plan to visit during winter. At this time of year, the city turns into a real winter wonderland, and its magical art galleries, intriguing museums, and stunning boutiques provide you with plenty of opportunities to warm up. 

There’s so much to do in the cosmopolitan Catalan capital that spending just a single weekend in Barcelona can feel like a pretty overwhelming task. From beautiful parks, world-famous architecture, and spectacular viewpoints to mind-blowingly good restaurants, iconic landmarks, and gorgeous pedestrian pathways, it’s almost impossible to decide what to see and what to skip!

  • We want to be time-efficient, so I&#;m not going to tell you to explore everything in the Park, but do head left to see the monumental waterfall and the small lake.

    Born district

    Retrace your steps back to the entrance, and go left around the corner of the park to find Princesa street: your shortcut to the Born District. Turn left on Flassaders street (it&#;s more scenic and more off the beaten path than Montcada a bit further away). If you didn&#;t have breakfast, at the bottom of the alley you&#;ll find the Hoffman cake shop with delicious croissants. The street ends at the main street of the district: Passeig sektion Born. vända right to find yourself at the back of one of the most beautiful churches in Barcelona: Santa Maria del Mar.

    Since the ingång is paid and time is short, my suggestion is to skip the inside and walk around it for a good view of the front. From there, your itinerary takes you up the lively Argenteria street, lined up with cute clothing stores, takes you to the heart of the historical area of Barcelona: the Gothic Quarter. But first, man sure to get a coffee to go at one of the oldest coffee roasters in town, Cafes El Magnifico.
