Barcelona

Why Go? Stunning, still evolving architectural landscape—from Gaudí's epic Sagrada Familia to Jean Nouvel's imposing Torre Agbar. Party until the wee hours, or shop until you drop. A dining scene to rival—some say outstrip—Paris, spearheaded by expert experimental chef Ferran Adrià. What to Skip The grubby city beaches.
