| Capital of Catalonia, Barcelona has long been dubbed "La Gran Encisera" , the Great Enchantress. Small wonder, with the bustle of the world's busiest seaport, the medieval romance of its Gothic Quarter, and a feast of Catalan Art Nouveau buildings, including the great creations of Antonio Gaudí. Barcelona remains one of the most spectacular cities in Europe. Spain's second city is now the country's hippest town. It is a city that is inconceivable until you get there, unbelievable while you walk its streets and unforgettable after you've gone. |
