Barcelona just seems to continue to go from strength to strength as a tourist destination, whether that be for a short weekend break or a longer stay. Barcelona has a unique blend of the cultural and the hedonistic. See its early Picassos and its grand Guadi masterpieces and experience its lively modern club and bar scene, and you begin to understand Barcelona. On a hot summer night its worth checking out one of the xiringuitos or beach bars, many of them have DJs and late licenses. During the day enjoy the beach or soak up some culture at the Museu Picasso or the Musea d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona. The Eixample district is where you will find Guadis unfinished masterpiece the Sagrada Familia, certainly Barcelonas most photgraphed building. Here you can also see buildings by the three greats of Modernisme, Guadi, Domenech and Puig i Casafalch, almost side by side in there completely contrasting styles. Never far from a gorgeous beach or a great restaurant you wont forget Barcelona and more than likely you'll be back for more.
