Meet Barcelona

The site by the architect Lluís Domènech i Montaner, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, has become a new point of reference for the city of Barcelona.

A decade after it opened, the Fòrum has found its identity and brought structures, transport and technology to an area practically ignored by the city.

Once an independent town, today it is now a charming, delightful and truly literary neighbourhood, with a network of squares and tiny streets where time appears to have stopped.

This is one of the city's largest green spaces, a place for enjoying sport, leisure pursuits and nature in all its splendour.

Gaudí's unfinished work is the most famous silhouette in Barcelona. It has become one of the city's best-known symbols around the world and receives millions of visitors every year.

The first wharf Barcelona ever had is now a magnificent seafront promenade lined with boats.

Set up as a cultural centre in 1998, the Nau Ivanow is a leader in the creation, production and diffusion of performing arts.

Built in 1917, the Casa de l’Aigua de Trinitat Nova, in Nou Barris, is a new cultural attraction, broadening the city's range of iconic sites.

The Canòdrom, has been given a new lease of life: it is now a meeting point where creative minds and business people aim to turn ideas into businesses and services.

Built for the Universal Exposition of 1929, the fountain offers one of the city's most attractive night-time shows, combining water, music, light and colour.

Crossing  the Collserola mountain range from one end to the other, Passeig de les Aigües is both a magnificent green trail and a privileged viewing point. 

This new architectural icon in the city is located in Plaça de les Glòries, in the district of Sant Martí, and houses the Museu del Disseny de Barcelona.
