Barcelona boasts a singular character, proudly guarded and shaped over the centuries. From the sovereign and seafaring years of the ancient Principality of Catalonia to the 1992 Olympics, it has long been a forward-thinking, enterprising and vibrant city.
Its unique personality finds expression in everything from the fairytale architecture of modernism patriarch Antoni Gaudí to the neighbourhood-wide street parties celebrating the likes of local saints and a love of reading.
We've ventured beyond the tourist-beaten tracks of Barri Gòtic and explored every nook, from Sant Andreu to Poble-sec. We've found independent retailers and grand fashion labels that abound with dynamic designs, as well as old-world tapas bars and innovative new spots bringing a modern touch to Catalan cuisine. And don't worry, we haven't eschewed the beach and bottle entirely there's always time for those in this city.
