Top tips for Abu Dhabi to Barcelona
Visit La Sagrada Familia
Unlike Abu Dhabi’s ultramodern buildings, Barcelona is famed for its Gothic architecture and the unique works of Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí. By far his most famous structure is the astounding La Sagrada Familia basilica, an icon of the city. Construction began in 1882 and continues to this day.
Make the most of magnificent marinas
Much like Yas Marina in Abu Dhabi, there are some great waterfront neighbourhoods in Barcelona. Port Vell is the place to grab some tapas and watch the super yachts pass by, whereas Port Olímpic has become one of the city’s most popular leisure areas.
