Have you ever traveled to Barcelona? If not, we’re here to give you a quick briefing before you go. Not necessarily about everything you should do there, but about what you shouldn’t be expecting. The truth is that Barcelona, like many other European cities, is different in person than in imagination. Here’s what you need to know about Barcelona before you travel there.
It Can Get Crowded
Just as you’ve probably heard about the magical city of Barcelona, so has the rest of thew world. In fact, this city is Spain’s most visited destination, bringing in about 9 million visitors every year. If you’re going to go, we’d highly recommend traveling outside of the busy season, which happens to be between May and August.
The Big City
Make sure to expand your horizons. While it might be tempting to just stick to the popular Sagrada Familia, Park Guell and La Rambla, make sure you’re traveling all over to see the best that this city has to offer. We promise you won’t regret getting the full experience—not to mention you’ll miss tons of big crowds when you travel outside of the well-known sights.
