Once up in Tibidabo, you will have reached the highest point of Barcelona and of Sierra de Collserola. This popular Magic Mountain is a place of peace and fun, also offering one of the best viewpoints of the city.

The mythic Tibidabo Mountain is located at 515 meters of height and is surrounded by both Collserola Natural Park and the city of Barcelona.

«Tidibado» is a Latin word that means «I will give you» (in Spanish, «te daré«). It´s a reference to a biblical fragment pronounced by the Devil to Jesus, in which the Kingdom of Earth was mentioned, possibly representing the big city.

Far from Barcelona, Tibidabo offers an amusement park, lots of green areas and places to enjoy your stay or simply contemplate the horizon.

Located just 15 minutes away from some of the most centric neigbourhoods, this mountain has a magical natural surrounding and excellent viewpoints. Among its emblematic buildings are Sagrado Corazón Temple and Fabra Observatory. Next to them, there is the well-known Tibidabo Amusement Park and the omnipresent Collserola Tower.

The City of Girona experiences one of its best moments whenever Temps de Flors starts together with spring. During sunny and warm May, its streets and most emblematic buildings are covered with flowers and filled with pleasant smells.

As sping arrives, this great celebration in Girona also comes close. This is an event in which a traditional flowers competition called ‘Girona Temps de Flors’ fills each corner of the city with flower ornaments and an intense fragrance.

In 2015, the 60th edition of this astonishing event is taking place, an event attracting neighbours and tourists equally. Between May 9 and 17, Girona is fully decorated with flowers.

This edition´s competition will be bigger in size and longer in duration, with a total of 164 flower projects covering monuments, yards and gardens around the city.

Modern locations get mixed with historical backgrounds, commemorating sixty years of life of ‘Temps de Flors’.

The enjoyable Mediterranean coast, a real balance between sea and sand, is considered a valuable treasure by millions of people, especially as soon as early summer starts. Let´s get to know the beaches of Barcelona.

Together with the modern architecture of the city, some places have become a hot spot for international visitors. Beaches of Barcelona are open-air spaces where people can enjoy the Mediterranean lifestyle, including sand, sun and beach.

Along 4 kilometres of coast, there are beaches for all and every taste and available all year long. You just need to move about 15 minutes away from the city centre to reach some of them.

Apart from sunbathing, beaches of Barcelona offer endless activities to enjoy, such as sea baths, sailing, swimming or any trendy water sport.

Visiting beaches in Barcelona is a really cosmopolitan adventure, as the city itself, a place where people from every corner of the world are more than welcome.

Formentera is a quiet and comfortable place on the Mediterranean shore, where visitors and locals live together without breaking with the magical environment of this small Balearic Island.

Located in front of both the quiet and natural island of Menorca and the internationally famous island of Ibiza, Formentera is a pleasant place worth visiting together with family or friends.

It is situated just 3.5 kilometres south away from Ibiza. There isn´t airport service in Formentera, so the only way to reach it is by boat, after a short relaxed journey.

Formentera is not especially known for its nightlife. On the contrary, its unique charm lies in its hidden corners, not frequently walked by many tourists.

Far from the Iberian glam, Formentera has been successful in protecting its original natural landscapes, keeping a balance between nature and comfort for locals and tourists.

Both locals and tourists from all over the world are part of a single community, encompassing lovers of the Mediterranean lifestyle.

The best polo players are gathering together to participate in one of the most prestigious tournaments. Barcelona Polo Challenge is back and intends to move the audience in the extraordinary field of Real Club de Polo de Barcelona.

The equestrian world is closely related to the history of Catalonia and Barcelona itself. That´s why Real Club de Polo de Barcelona (1897) is the oldest sports club in Spain.

This feature has been strengthening for the last 3 years due to the designation of Barcelona as the capital of the equestrial world. This leading role in the equestrian environment has given the city the chance to take part in several equestrian events, events that are included in Barcelona Equestrian Challenge (BECH).

Most of the competitions and events have been organized by Real Club de Polo Barcelona (RCPB) and Live Barcelona has already presented one of them called Barcelona´s International Jumping Competition (CSIO), an event that is part of the Furusiyya FEI Nations Cup™.

The next appointment with the equestrian world is Barcelona Polo Challenge, undoubtedly one of the greatest events for sports lovers and those who are passionate about equestrian tourism.

The 47th International Polo Tournament in Barcelona is taking place this April 25th and 26th and May 1st, 2nd and 3rd, an event worth attending!

Between the business area located below Diagonal Avenue and the Montjuic Mountain, there is one of the most popular neighbourhoods of Barcelona. We are talking about Sants Neighbourhood, known for its commercial life and for constituting one of the main accesses to the City of Barcelona.

The huge and lively commercial route that joins the different areas of Sants Neighbourhood is also what all of them have in common. Several places such as Sants itself, Hostafrancs, La Bordeta or Badal are communicated by Sants Street and Creu Coberta Street.

The railway service seems to divide Sants Neighbourhood into two. However, that fact is far from affecting the area; on the contrary, it has attracted people from both sides of the City of Barcelona.

Connected to l’Hospitalet de Llobregat by Riera Blanca Street, to Les Corts by Madrid Avenue and to l’Eixample by Tarragona Street and Josep Tarradellas Avenue, Sants Neighbourhood has not always been recognized for its diversity, mirrored in the coming and going of those who live by the main street and the peace of the interior areas of the neighbourhood.

You can find little streets where parties are held and neighbourhood life with markets and single-family houses, which make Sants seem part of a little town more than a big city like Barcelona.

Sants is multifaceted and is proud to be a popular neighbourhood!
