You can visit Barcelona any season of the year, but the most suitable time is from April to November:\n\nAugust: This is the summer month in the city, Barcelona people often go on vacation, so the city is quite deserted, with few shops open, suitable for those who want to enjoy a quiet space, without tourists. This time you will find it harder to find services than other seasons of the year.\n\nApril-June and September-November: This is the most ideal time to travel to Barcelona because the weather is very beautiful at this time, the air is very cool, the temperature ranges from 21-24 degrees Celsius, suitable for outdoor activities. One thing to note is that in April or coincides with the Christian Easter holiday, most of the shops here will be closed, especially the famous Boqueria market, so you should consider choosing a time. Go fit! \n"},{"metadata":{"width":1000,"height":667},"type":"img","version":1,"content":"https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/freeguides-prod.appspot.com/o/assets%2Ftours%2FhMtFrJnCeehI8c9dtP42%2Ffb-img-1537875790852.jpg?alt=media&token=cce9d7bf-8112-4097-b229-f22de123c93b"},{"type":"text","content":"# Transportation in Barcelona:\n\nBarcelona has a convenient transportation system and there are many means of transport for you to choose from such as: Tram, metro, taxi, bus...\n\nIn the city, it is probably easiest to buy a T-10 ticket, which can be used for 10 trips on any tram, metro, bus (single ticket is €2.2) and can be used by many people. In particular, the Tariff system allows changing vehicles without counting as another ticket purchase, free of charge for 1.5 hours. You can change from Metro to Bus and Tram, but will not be able to change from one station to another. If you have exited the Metro station and then re-entered, you must buy a new ticket. According to experience, when you use the metro (subway), you should keep your personal property carefully because there are many cases of pickpockets.\nIf you take a taxi, you should ask for the price in advance about the journey to avoid getting in the car, the price will be slashed.\n\nIf you have an international driver's license, you can also rent a self-drive car to explore Barcelona."},{"metadata":{"width":810,"height":456},"type":"img","version":1,"content":"https://firebasestorage.googleapis.com/v0/b/freeguides-prod.appspot.com/o/assets%2Ftours%2FhMtFrJnCeehI8c9dtP42%2Fkham-pha-quang-truong-Catalunya_31_5_2018_15_25_32.jpg?alt=media&token=b85bbc3e-8632-4cc1-922b-26b8d31dedb6"},{"type":"text","content":"Catalunya square is the heart of downtown Barcelona. Surrounded by shops and numerous structures, this large square is the convergence of the Ciutat Vella (Old City) and the modern 19th-century L'Eixample. King Alfonso XII inaugurated the square in in 1927 at what used to be the city gate of the old city.\n\nIf you're visiting Barcelona for shopping, then Catalunya Square is the ideal starting point. Browse the department stores that surround the square or walk along the city's most important streets. La Rambla's tree-lined promenade leads to the city's harbour, and is a bustling hub of activity around the clock. Here you'll find roadside stalls and independent shops, along with quaint buildings, tapa bars and the Boqueria Market.\n\nLocated in the opposite direction is the Passeig de Gràcia with the best contemporary architectural examples of the L'Eixample area. Look for two of Antoni Gaudí's most famous creations, Casa Batlló and La Pedrera, alongside high-end fashion boutiques, bars and restaurants.
