    I went a couple of years back and I am saving up to go back.
    Las Ramblas is great and the beaches are beautiful. It's bustling and the art is brilliant.
    Also, if you're into sport, the Olympic stadium and Ncamp [sp?], the football stadium are well worth a visit.
    Plus the shops and reasturants are to die for.
    But I'm sure Susie will have a more detailed and precise rating of the place! <IMG SRC="smile.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">

    I was in Barca last year on a school trip and found the city interesting. It's a great place if ya into arts and culture and stuff as well as clubbing and partying .The Nou Camp is cool, but the Olympic Stadium was disappointing and ya don't get to see much. Las Ramblas is the best place to go for shops and stuff. Unfortunely I didn't get to the beach there, buit I've heard it's cool. Though there's loads of crime and pick pocketing going on there.

    Enjoy ya trip

    :)

    i went to Barcelona last year. Its got older parts with all the arts and culture and stuff like that, and then theres the modern areas with loads of designer shops. You'll probably have a great time there.

    Have fun:)

    I went there in 1997. Probably changed quite a bit since then but saw the sagrada familia (the church) the stadium etc. lovely place to shop i really enjoyed it. i stayed at salou (costa dorada) and we went on a day trip although id love to go for longer.

    Awesome place! Went there year before last for 2 weeks...

    highlight must have been me and my mate drinking in the Gothic Quarter in front of the massive Gothic Cathedral in the rain (so atmospheric) then walking through the narrow streets into some catacombs and hearing a flute playing, followed the sound and was treated to half an hour of flute playing sat in the catacombs with a thunder and lightning storm going on outside - the most atmospheric experience ever... very vampish...

    Then we got drunk and my mate got his head stuck between the bars on our balcony of our £7 a night hotel!

    If you go and get the chance head to Sitges just down the coast - lovely seaside town, loads of bars a few clubs and where I had my first Tatoo done! Awesome place too...

    BTW the Guide Susie wrote is spot on...
