Have you got your agendas? Yes!
Then, clear them up right now.
Because Barcelona is always a very active city, but summer is specially full of festivals.
We start with PrimaveraSound.
Then, we have Sónar.
And if you are more into theatre or dance, you have Grec festival.
And… And a lot more.
Watch the video to know what are you missing if you don’t come to Barcelona in summer.
Because not everything is drinking “sangría” and sunbathing!

El parc de la Ciutadella, Barcelona’s lungs

Welcome to one of the greenest zones in the city.
El Parc de la Ciutadella was the first public park in Barcelona, specifically designed and built for this purpose.
Do you like animals? Visit the zoo, one of the biggest in Europe.
Do you prefer museums? You have the Geology or Zoology ones.
A fan of nature? There is the Greenhouse.
And sculptures (including a Walt Disney one!).
And a little lake.
And many, many more. People who live in the city love to spend their weekends walking and enjoying the park. Do the same!
But remember that, in the park, there is an ancient creature waiting for you.
Treat it friendly, and everything will be alright!

Chocolate at Petritxol street

And you thought it’s always hot in Barcelona? Not in winter…
But I have the perfect remedy: a hot and delicious chocolate at Petritxol street!
This narrow street next to les Rambles has some chocolate bars where you must stop by.
Moreover, take a look at the ceramics on the walls, where you will discover details about the city’s and its people’s history. And of course, don’t forget visiting the art galleries, bookshops and original shops along the street.
And believe me, there is nothing better than a chocolate with “churros” in a cold evening at Petritxol.
Highly addictive!
