Europe / Spain

A quick guide to beautiful Barcelona, Spain

29 July 2017

Last Updated on 23 May 2025

Spain’s Catalonian capital is a bustling Mediterranean metropolis, with wide, leafy lanes prime for people-watching, sandy shores that are almost eternally sunny, and a fútbol following bordering on religious. It’s immediately plain to see why so many of my friends have raved about this city— I am completely bewitched by the people, the heat, the peculiar architecture, and the lively noise in every corner of Barcelona. And the readily flowing sangria certainly doesn’t hurt, either! Here’s everything you need to know for your own visit to Barcelona, including how to get there, where to stay, and what to do.

Getting to Barcelona

Fly into the Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat International Airport, from which you have a number of options for reaching the city. A quick and comfortable (yet still cost effective) mode of transport is the Aerobus— these buses stop outside T1 and T2, and will get you into the city in about 30 minutes for just 5.90€. You’ll either need to walk to your accomodation or get on the metro afterwards, though, as there aren’t heaps of stops.

Alternatively, you can take the metro or a train into the city using the Hola BCN public transport card (15.20€ for 48hrs of unlimited use). This can sometimes take a bit longer depending on exactly where your hotel is, but it’s a great way to get familiar with Barcelona’s public transport and get your money’s worth out of a pass.

Getting around Barcelona

Although parts of Barcelona are great for walking, you’ll probably end up on public transport at some point due to the urban sprawl. Thankfully, public buses and metro are incredibly safe and easy to use. When in doubt, just ask your hotel staff to direct you towards the correct bus or metro stop for your journey, and pay using your Hola BCN public transport card (15.20€ for 48hrs of unlimited use, or check out other options on their website).

Where to stay in Barcelona

We stayed at Factory Gardens Hostel (now called The Loft Hostel), which is a fantastic, centrally-located hostel with dorm beds for about 25€ per night. I loved the lockers for our bags, the lights and charger next to each bed, and the curtains that that helped to create some privacy at night. Overall, I’d highly recommend this clean, comfortable, and inexpensive hostel— save your money for tapas!

What to do in Barcelona

Visit the colourful Mercat de Sant Josep de la Boqueria

I’m totally obsessed with markets— in my opinion, there is no better introduction to a city than being thrown into the sounds and smells of its markets, and La Boqueria is no excpetion. Near the Liceu metro station, we visited this hectic and spectacular mercado where you can buy all sorts of fruits, meats, and spices (it was pretty difficult for me not to bring home mango-infused sea salt, but it would have been snatched immediately off me by Australian customs, so I resisted). As a consolation prize, I enjoyed a delicious fruit juice and then wandered around the market, drink in hand, just trying to soak it all in. Come hungry or, at the very least, thirsty!

Gawk at bizarre Gaudí architecture

I don’t think anyone can really appreciate the degree to which Barcelona’s cityscape is dominated by the whimsical designs of the famous Catalan architect, Antoni Gaudí, until they witness it in person. Just walking to our hostel, we passed at least three of his towering masterpieces, sparkling in the sun (he was a fan of glitter) and commanding quite a lot of attention from tourists. Sandwiched between entirely normal buildings, there would be a confetti-covered edifice with warped balconies and peculiarly shaped windows that would be entirely at home in a Salvador Dalí painting. (That’s my cultured adult comparison, but it also did not escape my notice that Casa Milá looks exactly like Floop’s castle from Spy Kids. Uncanny.)

There’s a number of museums and tours entirely dedicated to Gaudí’s work and his obvious penchant for the less-ordinary, but it was far too hot to spend the day standing in queues, so we opted for wandering past his buildings instead and had a great time. Here are a few of the best-loved examples of Gaudí’s weird and wonderful genius:

  • Casa Milá: Finished in 1912, this residence (pictured above) is widely considered to be Gaudí’s most imaginative building, and possibly even one of the most fantastic buildings ever. You can join a tour to discover the inside of the house, which is highly recommended.
  • Casa Batlló: Gaudí completed his wild renovation of this traditional Catalan home in 1904, introducing bright colours, ceramic tiles, and a warped façade to the property (pictured below). It’s also possible to explore the building on a tour and take in city views from the scalloped roof.
  • La Sagrada Familia: The most famous of Gaudí’s wide and varied works, only a small fraction of his planned building La Sagrada Familia was completed before he passed away in 1926. The church is still under construction today, and rather major construction prevented me from visiting, but I’ve heard nothing but wonderful things about this Gothic/Art Nouveau masterpiece.
  • Parc Güell: An instantly recognisable Barcelona icon, Gaudí’s completed this UNESCO-listed hillside park in 1914. It’s so incredible that it deserves its own section!
Parc Güell

Visit colourful Parc Güell

The one attraction that I had been most looking forward to visiting in Barcelona was the immensely popular World Heritage-listed Park Güell, an expansive network of parks that sit above the city on Carmel Hill. The first thing we did when we arrived was hop on the #24 bus and scoot our way up to the Park.

Also designed by Gaudí, and every bit as eccentric as his other works, the park is an absolute masterpiece and has several dozen great spots for panoramic views of Barcelona below. Heartbreakingly, we missed out on the ubiquitous mosaic terrace photo, as access to the “Monumental Zone” is regulated by tickets that were completely sold out. I still felt quite satisfied with the views from other terraces and even just the interesting walk around the snaking paths of the park, but if it’s important for you to see the terrace, reserve a ticket online in advance for 7€.

Dig into some tapas in Barcelona

Enjoy tapas & sangria on La Rambla

Even though we had already enjoyed our share of tapas on Mallorca, I was still eager for more—when in Barcelona! Tapas are tiny plates of food, wonderful for sharing and sampling a large variety of tasty nibbles rather than having to choose just one thing off the menu. Some restaurants will serve up more traditional tapas, like chorizo and patatas bravas and croquettes, but we also found wonderful places that offered a variety of small plates, including everything from gazpacho and tiny open-faced sandwiches with meats and cheese, to mini hamburgers and baby bowls of ice cream, all for 1.5 – 2.5€ per plate. The whole experience is incredibly fun, not to mention delicious, and no trip to Barcelona is complete without going for tapas at least once.

And while you’re nibbling tapas, grab a drink! There’s truly no better way to spend a summer afternoon in Barcelona than perched on a shady outdoor table on La Rambla, people-watching with a gigantic glass of cold sangria in hand. We indulged a time or two (or four).

some of our favourite experiences from last month in this charming town on the French Riviera!

WHAT TO DO
☕️ stroll through Old Town: beautiful alleyways with charming shops + bars (pass by Palais du Justice, Cathédrale Sainte-Réparate de Nice, Église Sainte Rita for photos)
🏖️ Ruhl Plage: picturesque beach club with striped umbrellas + chairs (but the free beach immediately beside it works just as well for a quick dip!!)
🪴 Jardin Albert 1er: leafy park separating central Nice from the Old Town

🧀 La Cave du Fromager: fondue/cheese restaurant located in a wine cellar in Old Nice, beautiful and amazing food!
🦆 La Route du Miam: intimate 6-table restaurant serving legendary duck— the menu is bascially 3 options, but the duck-fat potatoes are mind-blowing, the wine selection is excellent, and the owners are impossibly charismatic (expect to leave with multiple kisses)
🍨 Finoccio: local-fave ice creamery with endless flavours
☕️ La Claque: small cafe with excellent coffee, matcha, kombucha etc
🍷 La Treille Bar à Vin: natural wine + small plates with charming outdoor seating
🍸 Soho: trendy bar with a good value happy hour 5-8pm
  • paris on (fuji)film 🇫🇷🥐🧀✨

we’d originally planned to spend June climbing in the French + Swiss Alps… but after I had knee surgery at the end of April, we had to pivot to something a little more recovery-friendly.

so we changed our flights from Geneva to Paris and instead spent a couple weeks sipping cocktails, making croissants, wandering through charming galleries, catching up with some of our favourite humans, and racking up steps around the city in an effort to get me hiking-capable asap. 

not exactly the summits we’d planned, but time well-spent all the same 💛 #fujifilmx100vi

  • The famous bowing deer of Nara 🦌✨

The ancient city of Nara is home to around 1,300 sacred deer (believed to be messengers to the gods!) roaming freely around the parks and temples. They are SO cute & friendly, and feeding the deer in Nara was a top highlight of my 6 weeks in Japan 🥹

Tips for visiting the deer:
🦌 head to Nara Park & you’ll find deer everywhere near Todaiji Temple, Kasuga Taisha & Kofukuji. Look for shikadamari (deer meeting spots) & approach respectfully!
🍘 buy shika senbei (deer crackers) for ~¥200 from local vendors. Hold one up, bow & watch the deer bow back!
🚃 get here in ~45min from Kyoto or Osaka by train
🏯 this is a popular day trip, but I definitely recommend staying overnight in a traditional ryokan & eating at some of the amazing local restaurants
⏱️ the park is prettiest early in the morning or around sunset when it’s quieter, the light is soft & the deer are more relaxed

  • DOHA, QATAR 🇶🇦✨

Without the flashy excess of the UAE & Saudi, Doha offers a more authentic slice of the Arabian Gulf, where culture & tradition meet striking modern architecture, world-class art, and a glittering skyline. 

We loved our time in Doha and would highly recommend as a quick stopover next time you’re flying through the Middle East!

WHAT TO SEE
⭐️ Souq Waqif: a buzzing market with spices, textiles & gold, perfect for getting lost + taking photos
⭐️ Museum of Islamic Art: one of the world’s most stunning Islamic art collections
⭐️ Dhow Harbour: traditional wooden boats bobbing in the water with Doha’s skyline behind (great for photography!)
⭐️ Mina District: neighbourhood with colourful pastel buildings & street art, best explored in golden light of late afternoon
⭐️ Fish Market: the most beautiful stained-glass ceiling I’ve ever seen, worth a quick walk through while exploring Mina!
⭐️ Qanat Quartier: a rainbow-hued “Little Venice” with canals, bridges & plenty of great restaurants 
⭐️ Katara Cultural Village: a great place to discover local culture 

HOW MANY DAYS?
we spent 4 days in Doha, but you can see most of the city’s highlights in 2-3 days 

GETTING AROUND
Uber is the best way to get across the city to visit some of the farther places of interest

  • Standing on the rim of one of the largest active volcanoes in the world, with smoke billowing out of the crater right behind us 🌋🔥

Mt Aso National Park is one of Japan’s coolest hiking spots, but still seriously underrated! With craggy lava fields, steaming vents & surreal views in every direction, you can hike right up to the rim of Nakadake Crater (when it’s safe!) and we had this spot completely to ourselves 💃🏻

  • Pivoting away from all the Japan photos for a moment to share a sleeper hit from last year’s travels that didn’t make it onto the feed (because I’m perpetually behind on posting…) → Qatar!!

This small Middle Eastern country was never on my list, but while we were in the region for the 2nd half of last year, we decided to take advantage of the Qatar Airways stopover program (this isn’t sponsored, it’s just a really cool program 😅)

For no extra cost, we were able to build a 4-day stopover into our flights from Oman to Egypt, and we ended up having WAY more fun in Qatar than expected. You don’t need long to explore (you could cram most of the highlights into 2-3 days), but it’s guaranteed to impress!

I’ll share some of our favourite experiences from Doha tomorrow, but WOW, who knew!?

☕️ stroll through Old Town: beautiful alleyways with charming shops + bars (pass by Palais du Justice, Cathédrale Sainte-Réparate de Nice, Église Sainte Rita for photos)
🏖️ Ruhl Plage: picturesque beach club with striped umbrellas + chairs (but the free beach immediately beside it works just as well for a quick dip!!)
🪴 Jardin Albert 1er: leafy park separating central Nice from the Old Town
📸 Colline du Château: elevated park on the headland with excellent views of the coastline
🚃 day trip to Eze + Monaco: both can be done in a single day with public transport or inexpensive Ubers!

WHERE TO EAT/DRINK
🧀 La Cave du Fromager: fondue/cheese restaurant located in a wine cellar in Old Nice, beautiful and amazing food!
🦆 La Route du Miam: intimate 6-table restaurant serving legendary duck— the menu is bascially 3 options, but the duck-fat potatoes are mind-blowing, the wine selection is excellent, and the owners are impossibly charismatic (expect to leave with multiple kisses)
🍨 Finoccio: local-fave ice creamery with endless flavours
☕️ La Claque: small cafe with excellent coffee, matcha, kombucha etc
🍷 La Treille Bar à Vin: natural wine + small plates with charming outdoor seating
🍸 Soho: trendy bar with a good value happy hour 5-8pm

paris on (fuji)film 🇫🇷🥐🧀✨

we’d originally planned to spend June climbing in the French + Swiss Alps… but after I had knee surgery at the end of April, we had to pivot to something a little more recovery-friendly.

so we changed our flights from Geneva to Paris and instead spent a couple weeks sipping cocktails, making croissants, wandering through charming galleries, catching up with some of our favourite humans, and racking up steps around the city in an effort to get me hiking-capable asap. 

not exactly the summits we’d planned, but time well-spent all the same 💛 #fujifilmx100vi

The famous bowing deer of Nara 🦌✨ The ancient city of Nara is home to around 1,300 sacred deer (believed to be messengers to the gods!) roaming freely around the parks and temples. They are SO cute & friendly, and feeding the deer in Nara was a top highlight of my 6 weeks in Japan 🥹 Tips for visiting the deer: 🦌 head to Nara Park & you’ll find deer everywhere near Todaiji Temple, Kasuga Taisha & Kofukuji. Look for shikadamari (deer meeting spots) & approach respectfully! 🍘 buy shika senbei (deer crackers) for ~¥200 from local vendors. Hold one up, bow & watch the deer bow back! 🚃 get here in ~45min from Kyoto or Osaka by train 🏯 this is a popular day trip, but I definitely recommend staying overnight in a traditional ryokan & eating at some of the amazing local restaurants ⏱️ the park is prettiest early in the morning or around sunset when it’s quieter, the light is soft & the deer are more relaxed . . . . . #nara #naradeer #japan #japantravel #traveljapan #wheninjapan

DOHA, QATAR 🇶🇦✨

Without the flashy excess of the UAE & Saudi, Doha offers a more authentic slice of the Arabian Gulf, where culture & tradition meet striking modern architecture, world-class art, and a glittering skyline. 

We loved our time in Doha and would highly recommend as a quick stopover next time you’re flying through the Middle East!

WHAT TO SEE
⭐️ Souq Waqif: a buzzing market with spices, textiles & gold, perfect for getting lost + taking photos
⭐️ Museum of Islamic Art: one of the world’s most stunning Islamic art collections
⭐️ Dhow Harbour: traditional wooden boats bobbing in the water with Doha’s skyline behind (great for photography!)
⭐️ Mina District: neighbourhood with colourful pastel buildings & street art, best explored in golden light of late afternoon
⭐️ Fish Market: the most beautiful stained-glass ceiling I’ve ever seen, worth a quick walk through while exploring Mina!
⭐️ Qanat Quartier: a rainbow-hued “Little Venice” with canals, bridges & plenty of great restaurants 
⭐️ Katara Cultural Village: a great place to discover local culture 

HOW MANY DAYS?
we spent 4 days in Doha, but you can see most of the city’s highlights in 2-3 days 

GETTING AROUND
Uber is the best way to get across the city to visit some of the farther places of interest

WHAT TO SEE
⭐️ Souq Waqif: a buzzing market with spices, textiles & gold, perfect for getting lost + taking photos
⭐️ Museum of Islamic Art: one of the world’s most stunning Islamic art collections
⭐️ Dhow Harbour: traditional wooden boats bobbing in the water with Doha’s skyline behind (great for photography!)
⭐️ Mina District: neighbourhood with colourful pastel buildings & street art, best explored in golden light of late afternoon
⭐️ Fish Market: the most beautiful stained-glass ceiling I’ve ever seen, worth a quick walk through while exploring Mina!
⭐️ Qanat Quartier: a rainbow-hued “Little Venice” with canals, bridges & plenty of great restaurants 
⭐️ Katara Cultural Village: a great place to discover local culture 

HOW MANY DAYS?
we spent 4 days in Doha, but you can see most of the city’s highlights in 2-3 days 

GETTING AROUND
Uber is the best way to get across the city to visit some of the farther places of interest
