Barcelona
Barcelona moves between Gothic streets, Gaudí's architecture, market culture, broad Eixample avenues, beaches and a working Mediterranean waterfront. It is a city best understood by changing neighborhoods, not just collecting landmarks.
See more than the headline sights.
Bon Voyage treats a destination as a connected world: history, neighborhoods, food, nearby escapes and the port or route that brought you here all belong to the same journey.
Barcelona's famous Eixample grid was designed to make a healthier, more equal city.
After Barcelona's walls came down in the nineteenth century, engineer Ildefons Cerdà proposed a vast expansion based on wide streets, open blocks, gardens and a rational grid. His 1859 plan reshaped the city's growth and became one of the most recognizable urban patterns in Europe.
