Barcelona travel tips

Try tapas in Barcelona restaurants

The word ‘tapas’ refers to a number of small Spanish snacks. They vary from region to region. Some of the tapas you might see in Barcelona are Pan con Tomate (white bread with tomato, drizzled in oil and salt), Chipirones (deep-fried baby squids), Patatas Bravas (deep-fried cubes of potato with a garlicky mayonnaise and a spicy tomato sauce) or Anchoas (anchovies in vinegar with parsley and garlic).

Try cava wine in Barcelona

Sangria is far from being your only option in Barcelona bars. Try cava — a popular Catalan sparkling wine. The name originates from the Catalan word for cave or cellar, the traditional storage place for wine. Cava is refreshing and lighter than famous champagne; therefore, it is easier to drink. It goes well with almost any dish. Enjoy the taste of Barcelona!

Go to the Gran Teatre del Liceu in Barcelona — one of the most popular opera houses in Europe

The Gran Teatre del Liceu was built in 1847. At the time of its construction, it was the largest opera house in Europe. Even today, its concert hall with nearly 2,300 seats on 6 levels looks staggering. The building was reconstructed in the 1990s. The architects preserved as much as possible, adding some state of art technologies. Even if you don’t feel like going to the opera, try visiting the building to see all its splendour.
