Coinciding with the reduction in transport costs and an increase in flight availability, Barcelona is now amongst the top five European city break destinations alongside old favourites such as: Paris, Amsterdam, Rome and Florence. Located on the Mediterranean coast, Barcelona, metropolis of two million, has a history of more than 2000 years. Playing host to the Olympic Games in 1992 only served to reiterate that Barcelona is firmly on the tourist map. To enhance the usefulness of this edition, a pull-out map is included, which not only helps visitors to orientate themselves, but also relates to selected excursions and itineraries featured in the book. The book contains 20 "do-it-yourself" itineraries, with easy-to-decipher maps, and tips on travel, clothes, sports, accommodation and restaurants.
