Barcelona

With the New Mags City Guide to Barcelona, you can make the most of your time, whether you’re searching for an exceptional tapas bar, a hidden cocktail spot, an unforgettable hotel stay, or an inspiring gallery visit.

Barcelona is a city of texture, colour, and imagination. Medieval alleyways open onto lively squares, modernist façades turn everyday streets into architectural encounters, and contemporary design adds fresh perspectives to a deeply rooted Catalan identity. From neighbourhood wine bars and independent boutiques to bustling food markets and quiet courtyards, its pleasures unfold at every pace. Come for the architecture and the sea; stay for the long lunches, late evenings, and discoveries that make the city your own.
