Right from wines to paintings to food to parties, there is something for everyone to do. Here are eight things that you should be sure to do while in the city.

Local favorites like Canalons, Capipota with Chickpeas and Pa AmbTomaquet are must-haves. Look up the popular restaurants in and around your area and be sure to visit them and try the specials that they have to offer. And of course, the paella.

Mercats At La Boqueria

Barcelona has a total of forty-two marketplaces and visiting even one of them will prove to be a sensory experience. For starters, their food game is no less vibrant and diverse than the restaurants. The vast displays of cheese, farm produce and seafood offer a sight that is unrivalled by anything else of its kind in the world. Each market has its own distinct characteristics, so make sure you pick and choose the kind of market experience you want to go for. Pick some VespingMotos here for easy traveling.

The musical scene in Barcelona is as diverse as it can possibly get. Opera lovers can head over to places like Palau de la MusicaCatalana and the Gran Teatre del Liceu to get a taste of the classical, as well as some mainstream artists from time to time.

Mountains

Outdoor enthusiasts will find there’s a lot for them to do up in the mountains of the city.

Camp Nou

Football fans, especially those who favor FC Barcelona, will be awestruck at the prospect of visiting the home ground of the world-famous team. The stadium and its museum are two of the most visited spots in the city, and diehard fans have the option of going for the Camp Nou Experience, where they get to visit parts of the stadium that only players are allowed. And if there’s a match going on sometime during your trip, nothing like it.

Cava

There is nothing like visiting a new place and trying out the local beverage, and the same can be said for Barcelona as well. Catalan Cava, often compared to French Champagne is made using the same method as Champagne, but with grapes of a more local nature like Macabeo and Parellada.
