Barcelona
#5 in Best Places to Visit in Europe
Barcelona, Spain’s diverse architecture sets the city apart from other European destinations. Antoni Gaudí’s Park Güell and Basilica de la Sagrada Família are beyond impressive, as are Palau de la Música Catalana and the many medieval buildings in the Gothic Quarter. When you tire of taking in the city’s stunning architecture, relax on La Barceloneta beach, sample a smattering of tasty local tapas at Boqueria Market or sip sangria along Las Ramblas.
