Amazing video Christina, thank you! I'm traveling to Barcelona in 4 mths 4 days. I am so excited to see the architecture! Your video covered it all. 🇨🇦

[@HappytoWander]

I love that you’re counting down the days!! I’d be the same haha. Hope you have an incredible time 🫶

We just returned a few days ago. I thought we did / saw a great deal but after watching this video, I can't believe how much we missed. Even if I had seen this video before going, we still probably would have needed so much more time to explore.

THANKS FOR SHARING VERY INFORMATIVE 👍🏿BARCELONA BEAUTIFUL😍

[@gcprost]

We will be in Barcelona in less than a month. We don’t intend to stay long as the focus of our trip is mainly family in the Malaga area. I was really impressed by your video and all the exciting things to see and do in and around Barcelona. The last time I was in Barcelona was the late 50’s so I don’t remember much.

[@ganeshr4371]

How was barcelona trip ? any likes and dislikes you want to mention ?

[@gcprost]

@@ganeshr4371 It was fantastic. There was so much history. There was so many things to do and see, I was exhausted after two weeks.

[@ganeshr4371]

@@gcprost Thank you! so, what do you recommend to travel whole country Spain and Portugal or just Barcelona and Lisbon in 10-15 days ? which is good and smart option ? Is it worth it to tour whole country ? Is Spain/Barcelona safe option for first time traveller to Europe ?

Hi Christina , thank you for this detailed video. I am going to Barcelona in mid February 2025. Have seen a lot of video but your video is the only detailed one. Do you have any video on Rome and Tuscany? I will visit Italy first and then Spain.

Thank you for this information. Very informative as we prepare for our Spain trip this summer. Are tourists not permitted into La Sagrada Familia if wearing shorts? We are traveling with students and we're advised to bring shawls to cover shoulders if wearing tank tops. The site states trousers and skirts mid thigh or over the knee. Did you see tourists being turned away while wearing shorts, or was the dress code not enforced? Thanks

[@mandywilson5004]

I was on holiday in blanes and went to barcelona for the day ...i enjoyed it for the day not sure i.d like to spend much more time there ...i.d quite like to see madrid

Hi Christina, thanks for the great video. I am going to Barcelona 2 weeks later, my son is Barcelona fan , but the stadium is temporarily closed , is it worth visiting the temp Barcelona club ?

[@Resdep2001]

I was just there. Thanks to this beautiful, city, l was able to do many short videos and uploaded it in my channel

[@patfernandes7741]

Sitges for a bougie day trip (or longer) and Port Aventura theme park if you have kids - both an easy train ride away.

[@HappytoWander]

Ahh I was contemplating going to Sitges on my last visit but didn’t have time. Definitely one for the list!! Thank you 🫶

Just as a note, the montjuic fountain has been closed for some time now 😔

[@y.meeema1876]

Is it open now please?

[@tikito46]

Beautiful 🤩

Excellent

you forgot Dalì's museum home in Figueres!

[@DrummyCovers15]

Do you have any videos for Asia?

[@HappytoWander]

Not yet!! My travel experience there has been really limited so I don’t quite feel qualified to give advice on Asia travel yet… but as soon as I travel there more, I’ll be making videos!

[@michaltopas]

Thank you

Where is the map link please?

[@MrSlick208]

No Barcelona Pavillion?

[@pungentstench156]

Pickpockets everywhere 😢🎉

[@HappyDays1]

Beautiful

[@HappytoWander]

Definitely a gorgeous city!

[@CeeLeeLEMT]

Funnily enough I knew about the architecture, but not about the beach 😹

[@HappytoWander]

Haha sounds like we have a similar travel style!! I was honestly shocked when I found out lots of people go to Barcelona as a beach break 🙈

[@davidburke2697]

No drought?

[@MateiA-s5m]

There might be some dought but the locals are so nice and will spray you with water while you eat dinner.

[@naturallye1785]

Unfortunately, I'm here in Barcelona as I watch this video & my experience as an African American woman has been terrible. It's AMAZING to see the beautiful architecture & the history. But the blatant RACISM I've experienced here is unreal & unmatched. I've never experienced this in the US. It's so terribly troubling.

[@joonlee30]

Or you guys just look at any negativity and call it racism. I’m Asian and I experience racism too but i’ve never let that get in the way of enjoying and living. Try not to focus on the negative because there will be negativity for everyone and everywhere. Also it’s good to self reflect. Was the incident caused my skin color or your own actions/attitude/etc? Just some suggestions.

[@naturallye1785]

@@joonlee30 Appreciate your perspectives though they aren't indicative of my situation. Before we came to the conclusion of racist behaviors, we 'sat' with it for a couple of days. We then begin to laugh off the rudeness with the attitude that people will be people. It wasn't until it became physical (shoving) that it became a problem. I'm not the 'jump-to-race' type of person, we were very thoughtful & mindful b/4 reaching that conclusion.

[@mercedeswilliams9439]

Girl - WHO HURT YOU!? As a Barcelona citizen I can assure you that it’s not racism, more the issues some people here have with the mass tourism! My baby girl is mixed and in her class are kids of all races and no one cares about their skin color! There are obviously racist idiots everywhere in this world, but it is not as crazy here in Bcn as you made it sound. Next time you should come around I let me know, and I will show you the real Barcelona, and even invite you to some home made tortilla de patata ❤

[@lemelket]

@@joonlee30ugh typical comment. Zero empathy. Zero critical thinking. Denying racism won’t bring you closer to being white.

I’m so sorry that happened to you. ❤

Great city if you dont mind being pickpocketed .oh and the police are a disgrace...

[@johnnymars9782]

Best thing to do is to avoid Barcelona LOL. Over hyped city, unfriendly local, drought that closed the water fountain attractions are some of the reasons.

[@pedroRodriguesMD]

Mansão da Discordia.

[@pedroRodriguesMD]

Discordia, because the family did not agreed with anything ( discordia, discordar, being agains an opinion)

[@TemplarX2]

Barcelona is like a Middle Eastern version of Paris.

The best thing you can do is go some other place where you won't be hated.

After the 1st 3 minutes I had to turn the sound off, her annoying voice and her pitching it from medium , raising it high then ending each sentence on the same low note was unbearable after the first ten semtences
