It’s a tight race, but Barcelona might just be Spain’s best city. Its football team aside, the Catalan seaside city is lauded for its unique modern architecture like La Sagrada Familia Basilica, its food options so good that everywhere closes for two hours for lunch, its Gothic Quarter and green spaces like Park Guell that are made for walking, its art galleries, live music and nightlife. Its delights make it hard to leave, but it’s perfectly positioned for an exploration of northern Spain to San Sebastian and beyond, or to loop through Western Europe, legendary cities of Paris, Berlin, and on to Italy.
