Put Barcelona in your travel list 2025

#getgoing2025 Barcelona is unbelievable popular destination for travelers from all over the world. I see many reasons for it - it’s full of stunning architecture, delicious food, fun and crazy nightlife etc. I’d like to share my travel tips for you to be prepared for a trip to this European capital: • There will be lots of tourists during the season, so I would suggest to travel there in winter time like I did and to book all attraction tickets in advance • If you want to have an authentic cultural experience in Barcelona, you can look for local events that embrace Catalan traditions like the parades of giants, human tower gatherings, Sardana dance circles and th • Everyone will tell you La Rambla is a must-do, but for me, walking the Rambla feels a lot like walking through Times Square back at home – crowded, touristy, and to be avoided whenever possible. Thankfully, the city has more than one Rambla, where you can actually enjoy the slow strolling these city features were built for. • Barceloneta is the most famous beach in Barcelona, and the adjacent neighborhood is worth checking out for its narrow streets and great tapas spots, but travel further down the coast if you actually want to lay out on the beach. Barceloneta can get very crowded and noisy with tourists, so walk or cab your way past Port Olímpic to Platja de la Mar Bella. Because all the beaches in Barcelona are artificial, built for the 1992 Olympic games, the sand isn’t the nicest, to be frank. • Pickpockets are a real issue. You should never let your guard down, especially when riding the metro or walking down crowded tourist areas like La Rambla. Put your phone away whenever you’re not using it, and never leave it sitting on the table if you’re dining outside Have an amazing time in Barcelona!
