Norway, France, Serbia, and everywhere in between.

In four days, you can take a big bite out of Barcelona. And not just its tapas—this city does small plates better than anywhere else on earth—but also its art, culture, and entertainment. From Gothic palaces to Gaudi masterpieces and from late-night concerts to fast-paced soccer showdowns, Barcelona seriously delivers.

With a week in Barcelona, you’ll feel like a local in no time. I put together this seven-day itinerary with that goal, introducing you to one neighborhood at a time, giving you a chance to get to know each spot really well before moving on to the next. (It also means there’s very little backtracking, which means saving on travel time as well. Win-win!) So if you want to get lost on the narrow streets of the Gothic Quarter, ride a bicycle along the beaches of Barceloneta, or window-shop in the Art Nouveau boutiques along the Passeig de Gràcia, this itinerary is for you.
