advice for Barcelona trip
My wife and I are planning a trip to Barcelona in the summer of 2005. Any
advice on what the "must see's" are in that city? Any help would be greatly appreciated. We will be there for only 3 days. |

Any advice on what the "must see's" are in that city? Any help would be greatly appreciated. We will be there for only 3 days. One Barcelona resident told me that his city is absolutely perfect 10 months of the year. This made sense: in July or August the "must see" for me would be air conditioning in the hotel. My "3-star" had a/c in the hallways but only a ceiling fan in the room, and it was a nightly ritual to try to find some kind of sleepable position. One guy I met said that cold towels under his neck on the pillow was how he survived. But I also walked past a young American standing in front of her hotel one night, protesting loudly and miserably that there was no way she could possibly stand to go back up in the tropical swelter that was her hotel room. She was REALLY upset. |

Just get yourself a two day ticket for the tourist bus (http://www.tmb.net/en_US/turistes/bu...usturistic.jsp) for EUR 20 and you will not even be able to miss one of the "must sees". However, I am not sure if the must sees (in any place of the world) are always the must sees. Jens |

Personally, I liked the Gaudi architecture, but tastes differ. -- PB The return address has been MUNGED |
