Rating: 10

Living, breathing and radiating the energetic Spanish temperament's positive vibe, unparalleled Barcelona is surely a place not to be missed in Europe! It is the best location on the planet to view Antoni Gaudi's architectural genius, including his precious unfinished masterpiece, the Sagrada Familia Basilica, as well as the splash of colors of Park Guell and the uniqueness of his Casa Batllo and Casa Mila. In fact, Barcelona is such a popular European destination that it's often mistakenly considered as Spain's capital! All doubts aside, there's much to see in this heart-stealing Catalan seaside gem as it finds a way to harmoniously blend the old and the new, the natural with the man-made. Get tangled in the narrow labyrinths of the Gothic Quarter, see the 13th-century Barcelona Cathedral, explore the former royal palace now housing Catalonia's finest art museum and Magic Fountain, enjoy the indescribable young atmosphere of La Rambla, stop by the bustling home of FC Barcelona, Camp Nou, and rise up to Mount Tibidabo to capture the best views over Barcelona to remember a lifetime!...Read more

La Lonja de la Seda: This UNESCO World Heritage Site is a prime example of late Valencian Gothic architecture. It was originally used for trading silk, hence the name "Silk Exchange." Turia Gardens: Once a river flowing through the city, it was diverted to prevent flooding and the old riverbed was turned into one of the largest urban parks in Spain. Central Market (Mercado Central): This is one of the largest markets in Europe, with a spectacular art-nouveau building housing hundreds of stalls selling fresh produce, meats, and seafood. Valencian Paella: Valencia is the birthplace of the world-famous dish, paella. True Valencian paella is made with rabbit, chicken, and beans.
