Barcelona is the second-largest city in Spain and is becoming more popular in recent years for tourists as the name was much more widely recognized after the recent hosting of the Olympic Games.
Although many tourists seek out the more popular destinations such as Paris or Rome for their fascinating history and architecture, Barcelona is more well-known for its smaller details that add a ton of charm.
Pause for a moment and watch the Barcelona Travel Video about if you haven't had a chance yet and see some of the fascinating things to experience in the amazing city. On the agenda should be the many various hidden courtyards, markets full of produce and other unique attractions that make Barcelona one of the most livable cities in Spain and perhaps the entire world.
Some additional things you need to know when visiting here include the area code which is 93. If you need cash while in the city ATMs are located in various places and banks are traditionally open Monday through Friday although they close earlier than typical U.S. banks around 2pm local time.
Carry an electrical adaptor with you here as outlets can vary widely and its always best to check with the hotel before plugging anything in.
In case of an emergency call 061 for an ambulance or 090 to report a fire.
