Cataluña is a vibrant and diverse region; a fusion of history, culture and nature where the Mediterranean meets the Pyrenees. Its identity, marked by its language and traditions, makes it a unique destination.

Barcelona, its capital, is a fascinating city. The Sagrada Familia, Gaudí's masterpiece, amazes with its unique architecture; the Gothic Quarter transports you to medieval times; and the always lively Ramblas reflect its cosmopolitan essence. From Park Güell to Barceloneta beach, Barcelona never ceases to amaze.

But Cataluña is much more than its capital. Girona, with its perfectly preserved old town, invites you to lose yourself in its Jewish quarter; Tarragona, the former Roman Tarraco, boasts an impressive amphitheater by the sea. And in Lleida, the imposing Seu Vella dominates the city from above.

Catalan landscapes are spectacularly beautiful. The Costa Brava, with its hidden coves and crystal-clear waters, is a paradise for sea lovers. Inland, La Garrotxa offers unique volcanic landscapes, while the Catalan Pyrenees, with ski resorts and idyllic valleys, are perfect for active tourism.

The gastronomy is another of its great attractions. Escalivada (roasted vegetables), bread with tomato and botifarra (a Catalan sausage) are classics of Catalan cuisine; the calçotada (barbecued onions) is a gastronomic experience in itself. And the wines of Priorat and Penedès are the perfect accompaniment to any meal.

Festivals and traditions bring the region to life. La Mercè in Barcelona, the castells in Tarragona and the Patum de Berga are just some of the most emblematic celebrations. Cataluña is a region full of contrasts and personality; those who visit it always find a reason to return.
