Grab your camera and follow me! Voted most photogenic city by; me, Barcelona is truly breathtaking! All those amazing castles you dreamt of as a child are suddenly there, right before you. It's a beautiful dream come true. It takes a lot of will power, but put down the camera, because the museum of history does not allow photography of any kind, but it's worth checking out. This is a great walk through Catalonian history. Architecture is what Barcelona is well known for and it is breathtaking. They have every style of structure you could possibly imagine and some beyond comprehension; ancient, medieval, and how in the world did they do that? This trend of artistic architecture has been around since the 19th century. Speaking of artists, this was also home to Picasso, just to mention a great, well known. His artistic impression definitely shows. I believe Barcelona to be a great land muse for artists of any kind. One really fun way to check out the scenery is the Hop-on Hop-off Tour.
You can jump off and on when you like, seeing all the things that interest you on your trip. This tour has a total of 44 stops and you can hit whichever ones tickle your fancy. This is a must do and you will thank me for it. Oh, by the way, did I mention the beaches? You'll find the locals hanging out and soaking up the sun. Some come on their lunch break, roll up their slacks, and rejuvenate for the rest of the work day. This is the life! Make it yours in Barcelona.
