My recommendations of local places to visit in Barcelona..
Bunkers del Carmel
This site is a symbolic milestone of the Spanish civil war. The bunkers were built to protect against the series of about 200 bombings in Barcelona during the civil war (1936-1939). Besides the historical value, the bunker are also build on top of a hill which gives a unique perspective of Barcelona. We recommend that you take a picnic basket with you and watch the sunset because the view is like no other, when you see the Sun disappear in front of you.

Cycling tour
Would you like to get to know the city of Barcelona, it is very nice to have a cycling tour through Barcelona. Barcelona has little height difference which makes the city excellent for cycling. There are wide boulevards where you can cycle along well! There are also many bicycle paths in Barcelona, and because the cycling is becoming more popular, there are more and more built.

The Mercat Del Encants is the largest and most famous flea market in Barcelona. Every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday is the Carrer del Dos de Maig (not far from the pickle of Barcelona) littered with books, clothes, knickknacks and other ‘ bargains ‘.

Hospital Sant Pau from Gaudi
The hospital Sant Pau is designed by Lluís Domènech i Montaner. Also here are a lot of ornaments and decorations. As well in the main building and the more than thirty pavilions. But the most special is that each Pavilion has his own appearance. The construction began in 1902 and were completed in 1930. Entirely appropriate in the trend of Gaudí, the project was settled quietly because of money shortage.
