Barcelona-a sparkling jewel of a city by the sea-is the second biggest city in Spain and the birthplace of many of the world's greatest artists, including painters Pablo Picasso and Joan Miro. The great artistic tradition of this city is reflected in its many museums and galleries, as well as the beauty of its architecture. Just looking at the wide range of architectural styles-from Roman to modern-can be a lesson in history. Other signs of Barcelona's cultural presence include a number of great libraries and universities, beautiful museums and galleries, and a growing film industry. Throughout its 2000 year history, Barcelona has welcomed outside visitors and incorporated elements of their cultures into their own. This is evident in everything from the languages spoken (Spanish and Catalan) to the huge variety of dining options.

Tourists have many options when it comes to places to visit. You might not be able to fit all your desired destinations into one trip, but there are a couple of cultural hot spots that you definitely don't want to miss. The Museo Picasso and the Fundacion Joan Miro are world-class art museums dedicated to showcasing the lives and works of two of Barcelona's most well-known citizens. Barcelona is also known for its terrific food, and one of the best places to sample its local cuisine is the Mercat de la Boqueria (located on La Rambla). This food market has been called the best in all of Spain by Travel + Leisure magazine and features a wide variety of high-quality dishes from skilled chefs. When it comes to shopping, head to Fira de Nautumismo (in Placa Reial), one of the region's top street markets. There you'll find collectibles and crafts handmade by local artisans, which make perfect gifts for your friends and family back home (or for yourself).
