You won’t just get lost in the history of the Gothic Quarter of Barcelona, but also in the incredible variety of things that can be found in this corner of the city, which is also the most visited by tourists and locals. With its labyrinthine streets, it's best to pay close attention to its surroundings, as it is often the case that you literally get lost in the area. With beautiful squares that make it the perfect place to unwind with a bottle of wine or a good book in the evenings, there are plenty of shopping options for shopping, a cathedral, and a vibrant nightlife.

Barcelona's many cultural attractions include the famous Pablo Picasso Museum, which houses a significant collection of Spanish artist's art. If you are an art lover or are interested in the life and work of Picasso, this museum is essential to understand his career and the extent of his talent.

The best time to visit the city of Barcelona is between May and June when the mild temperatures of the mid-70s mingle with a wave of festivals announcing the arrival of the summer. The real summer is sticky with humidity; the residents are massively leaving their favorite city to take the breeze elsewhere. They come back for the fall when the highest return is to 70. Winter is mild compared to other Spanish destinations, with peaks in the 50 highest. And while the coming spring seems like a good idea to escape the crowds, April gets frequent shivers that can literally hurt tourism projects (most of Barcelona's main attractions are being experienced outdoors).
