Description
Barcelona barely has time to take down the bunting between its rollicking festivals-when there isn't an all night fiesta happening on the street, there's more likely a party on the beach ( only ten minutes away) and never any shortage of action in its clubs and bars. Gentler pursuits are also myriad: the city's museums have got it all coverd from Picasso and Miro to perfume and an outstanding aquarium.It's galleries are among the most avant garde in Europe and its history written large in show more the churches and perfectly preserved medieval alleyways of the Barri Gotic. Time Out's local journalists give you the inside scoop on where to stay, eat, shop and what to see. Suggested day-trips to coast, country and city are also included in the guide. show lessTags

On my trip to Barcelona, I took 3 guidebooks: Fodor's, Frommer's and Time Out. This one (Time Out) wound up being the only one I really used, every day.
The maps are far more detailed and easy-to-read, the information much more comprehensive, accurate, and easy-to-find, and the bar and restaurant recommendations were spot-on.
Plus it has interesting historical information, and more details about more neighborhoods than I found in any of the other books.
I'd highly recommend this guide to anyone heading to Barcelona!

Good for trip planning - updates every year. Especially good with keeping up with bars, restaurants, entertainment.
