Poble Espanyol is a small Spanish village where you can find different samples of Spanish architecture. It was build for International Exhibition which was held in Barcelona in 1929 on Montjuic mountain. There are 116 buildings which were build by two architects. Some of the buildings are exact replicas of existing buildings and others just represent the architectural style of different areas in Spain. One of the most famous replicas is the main entrance gate “Puerta San Vicente”, which original version is located in the Avila city.
The Sagrada Familia is arguably the most famous tourist attraction in Barcelona. Gaudi's largest and most obscure work, this church rises high above all the surrounding buildings and is yet to be completed. Antonio Gaudi was revolutionary in the modernist movement that swept across Barcelona in the late 19th Century and his Sagrada Familia is a prime example of that. Although unfinished the privately funded, Roman Catholic church has been planned to operate some ceremonies in September 2010.

It is never good to generalise but the bars in Poble Nou all seem to be cut from the same pattern. This is not a bad thing, the area is the perfect place to go out for some informal drinks with an open mind as to where the night might end. There is such a relaxed in Poble nou with an unquestionable diversity too. The area is known for its contingent of punks, rockers and piercings which does make a difference if you are not that way inclined as you risk not being allowed in. However in amongst these gothic bars and clubs you can find gems like Airbase.
Belly is on the left hand side of Eixample and does not adhere to the stereotype of a Sanish bar. It is neither a bar nor a lounge n a restaurant; it is all three combined. Belly offers different nights almost every night of the week, with Thursdays being sushi night, Wednesdays offering Mojitos and Caipirinhas for only 4,50€ but happy hour every night from 6pm to 9pm. The decor is interesting, with modern paintings on the walls, the room is crowded with tables and yet spacious and the staff are great, really friendly and fun. They play great music and This is a perfect place to go for a relaxing cocktail or even begin your night of bar crawling and clubbing!
This bar is reknown for playing some of the best live music in the city. Admittedly the average customer is 30 plus and middle class but do not let this deter you from going to hear some fantastic jazz. Sometimes they play salsa but this bar has the right idea about music, they never play it too loud that it interrupts your conversation, you are perfectly able to socialise whilst listening and yet in no way does the music take a back seat.
Cafe Schilling is in the heart of the action on calle Ferrans just of Las Ramblas. It is primarily a cafe but at night becomes a great place to have a drink. It has big windows looking out onto one of the busiest streets in the city so you can sit and watch the world pass you by. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner and are then open till 2 am to continue the party. Food stops being served at midnight but before then you can get baguettes, salads and even little snacks like olives or hummus.
